About Velvetrol-CT Tablet

Velvetrol-CT Tablet is used to prevent or treat low blood calcium levels in people who cannot get sufficient calcium from their diets. Velvetrol-CT Tablet 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).

Velvetrol-CT Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Elemental Calcium (mineral) and Calcitriol (vitamin D3). Elemental Calcium is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Calcitriol is a human-made form of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the decreased activity of parathyroid glands) 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 stomach.

Most of these side effects of Velvetrol-CT Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Velvetrol-CT Tablet should be used with caution in children and only if recommended by a doctor. Calcitriol in Velvetrol-CT Tablet can affect growth in children. Inform your doctor if your child is not growing at a normal rate while using Velvetrol-CT Tablet .
