About Zecal 40 Plus Tablet
Zecal 40 Plus Tablet belongs to the class of medicines called dietary supplements primarily used to treat calcium and vitamin D3 deficiency. Also, it is used to prevent bone diseases such as osteoporosis and rickets. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that weakens and thins bones by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break. Rickets is a bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D.
Zecal 40 Plus Tablet contains Calcium, Vitamin D3, and isoflavones. Calcium is used to prevent or treat calcium deficiency in people who do not get enough calcium from their diet. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Vitamin D3 helps the body to absorb calcium and phosphorous. Thereby increases calcium levels in the blood and helps to build and maintain strong bones. Isoflavones work by preventing bone loss and strengthening bones.
