Dical-D Tablet 10's

Dical-D Tablet 10's belongs to the class of 'Nutritional supplements', primarily 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 with low blood calcium levels), and rickets or osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones due to lack of calcium). 

Dical-D Tablet 10's consists of Calcium (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), and Glycine (amino acid). Calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients that help bone formation and maintenance. Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium, phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Glycine is an amino acid that improves bone health and reduces the risk of diseases like osteoporosis.

Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition. Dical-D Tablet 10's is likely safe to use. In some cases, it may cause common side effects like constipation, nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if any of the side effects persist or worsen, please consult a doctor.

If you are allergic to Dical-D Tablet 10's or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Please tell your doctor if you have hypercalcaemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), heart/liver/blood vessel diseases, kidney stones, or malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food) before starting Dical-D Tablet 10's.

Dical-D Tablet 10's is used to treat low blood calcium levels. It effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body like Vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis, hypoparathyroidism, latent tetany, and rickets or osteomalacia. Dical-D Tablet 10's consists of Calcium (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), and Glycine (amino acid). Calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients that help bone formation and maintenance. Vitamin D3 helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. It aids in calcium absorption enabling bone growth and repair. It further prevents cartilage degeneration. Glycine improves bone health and reduces the risk of diseases like osteoporosis. It also boosts creatinine levels in the body further leading to increased muscle strength, mass, and power.

Let your doctor know if you are allergic to Dical-D Tablet 10's or its inactive components. Dical-D Tablet 10's is not recommended if you have hypercalcaemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart/liver/blood vessel diseases, kidney stones, achlorhydria (little or no stomach acid), low levels of bile, and phosphate imbalance before starting Dical-D Tablet 10's.

Drug-Food Interaction: Avoid or reduce the intake of caffeine, soft drinks and alcohol as they may inhibit calcium absorption.

It is advised to timely monitor your Vitamin D levels through blood examination.

Vitamin D deficiency: When a person cannot get enough Vitamin D through food and exposure to sunlight, it leads to vitamin D deficiency. It often leads to thin, brittle or misshapen bones.

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that makes the bones weak and brittle by decreasing bone density.

Tetany: A disease condition due to low calcium levels (hypocalcaemia) in the body that causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).

Osteomalacia/Rickets: A disease caused by softening and weakening of bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D.

Hypoparathyroidism: It is a disease characterized by low levels of parathyroid hormone. This can cause low calcium levels and trigger tetany (muscle cramps, spasms or tremors).
