About CALMAX TABLET

CALMAX TABLET is used to treat various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, like Vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), hypoparathyroidism (parathyroid glands make low levels of calcium in the body), latent tetany (a muscle disease), and rickets or osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones).

CALMAX TABLET contains Calcium (mineral) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Calcium provides essential nutrients to support bone formation and maintenance. Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels, as well as bone mineralisation.

CALMAX TABLET is likely safe to consume. In some cases, it may cause side effects like constipation and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
