About Cal-D3 Suspension
Cal-D3 Suspension belongs to the class of 'Vitamins,' primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. Cal-D3 Suspension effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, like Vitamin D deficiency. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body cannot absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, skin disorders, digestive issues, and dementia (memory loss).
Cal-D3 Suspension consists of elemental calcium and vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol). Elemental calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency.

It helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and the mineralization of bone.
