About Jbtriol Softgel Capsule

Jbtriol Softgel Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called 'vitamin D metabolites' primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. Jbtriol Softgel Capsule effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Jbtriol Softgel Capsule can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium. Additionally, Jbtriol Softgel Capsule is used to treat hyperparathyroidism (overactive parathyroid glands) and metabolic bone disease in people with chronic kidney disease, surgery, or other conditions.

Jbtriol Softgel Capsule contains Calcitriol (Vitamin D3); it is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It is an essential nutrient to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid gland's decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. It raises Vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. This helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine.

Take Jbtriol Softgel Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take Jbtriol Softgel Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition.

If you are known to be allergic to Jbtriol Softgel Capsule or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Jbtriol Softgel Capsule . Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. Jbtriol Softgel Capsule may pass into the breast milk. Hence, breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting Jbtriol Softgel Capsule .
