About CALCIUM CARBONATE+CHOLECALCIFEROL+L METHYLFOLATE CALCIUM+MECOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE
CALCIUM CARBONATE+CHOLECALCIFEROL+L METHYLFOLATE CALCIUM+MECOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE belongs to the group of medicines called nutritional supplements used to treat and prevent nutritional deficiencies such as calcium deficiency, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and post-menopausal osteoporosis. A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for body development and the prevention of diseases.
CALCIUM CARBONATE+CHOLECALCIFEROL+L METHYLFOLATE CALCIUM+MECOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE contains Calcium carbonate, L-methylfolate calcium, Mecobalamin, Pyridoxal phosphate, and cholecalciferol. Calcium carbonate makes the bones stronger by increasing their density. It helps in treating and preventing low calcium levels. Cholecalciferol helps in the absorption of calcium from the stomach. Mecobalamin helps in the proper functioning of the brain, nerves, and production of red blood cells. Pyridoxal phosphate helps in regulating essential metabolic functions. L-methylfolate calcium helps in producing new blood cells and prevents low folate levels. Together, CALCIUM CARBONATE+CHOLECALCIFEROL+L METHYLFOLATE CALCIUM+MECOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE helps in treating nutritional deficiencies.
