Diet & Lifestyle Advise

Healthy eating habits:

  • Add foods high in calcium, such as milk, curd, paneer, cheese, ragi, sesame seeds, and almonds.
  • Make sure you get enough vitamin D from foods like eggs, salmon, fortified milk, and mushrooms.
  • To promote bone health, consume meals high in protein (dal, legumes, eggs, lean meat).
  • To improve vitamin D synthesis, spend 15 to 20 minutes in the morning in the sun.
  • Reduce your intake of carbonated drinks, salt, and caffeine because they accelerate the loss of calcium.

Lifestyle modifications:

  • To strengthen your bones, engage in weight-bearing and strength-building activities such as yoga, stair climbing, and walking.
  • To reduce bone stress and fracture risk, maintain a healthy body weight.
  • Steer clear of alcohol and tobacco since they weaken bones and decrease the absorption of calcium.
  • Wearing appropriate footwear and maintaining well-lit living areas can help prevent falls and injuries.
  • To promote bone growth and general health, make sure you get enough sleep.

FAQs

Milical-OD3 Tablet is used to treat low blood calcium levels. It 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). It can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium. Additionally, Milical-OD3 Tablet is used to treat hyperparathyroidism (overactive parathyroid glands) and metabolic bone disease in people with chronic kidney disease, surgery, or other conditions.

Milical-OD3 Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Calcium orotate (mineral) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Calcium orotate helps build and maintain bones. Cholecalciferol helps your body absorb Calcium orotate and supports the muscles needed to avoid falls.

Milical-OD3 Tablet can cause kidney stones due to excess calcium deposition when used for a prolonged period. Please consult your doctor before taking Milical-OD3 Tablet as a daily supplement if you have a history of kidney problems or kidney stones.

Cholecalciferol in Milical-OD3 Tablet can increase inorganic phosphate levels in serum; hence, it should be cautiously used in patients undergoing dialysis to maintain adequate phosphorus levels and avoid ectopic calcification (calcium deposition). It is advised to follow a low-phosphate diet to control serum phosphorus levels in dialysis patients.

Milical-OD3 Tablet is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence, it is not advised to use Milical-OD3 Tablet if you have hypercalcemia since it causes an overdose of calcium, leading to kidney stones and other effects.
