DV 400 Syrup is a vitamin that is used to regulate calcium and phosphate metabolism in children. This medicine is used to treat vitamin D deficiency and osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones due to a lack of calcium). Vitamin D deficiency occurs when your body has low Vitamin D levels and is caused by inadequate nutrition, malabsorption, or lack of sunlight exposure.

DV 400 Syrup contains Cholecalciferol, a form of vitamin D. It promotes the absorption of calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin A from different organs and helps maintain overall health.

DV 400 Syrup may rarely cause certain side effects in your child, such as constipation, increased blood calcium levels, increased calcium levels in urine, vomiting, and nausea. These side effects generally resolve over time. However, if it does not resolve, contact the paediatrician immediately.

DV 400 Syrup should be avoided for your child if she/he is allergic to it. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition, including his current medications and medical history, to rule out any side effects/interactions. Before administration, inform the paediatrician about all the OTC medicines, including other vitamin supplements, that your child is taking.
