This medicine may only be part of a treatment program that may also include changes to your diet and taking other medicines and vitamin supplements.
The most common side effects of this medicine include headache, back pain, musculoskeletal (bone, muscle or joint) pain, indigestion, diarrhea, and heartburn.

Uses of Calembic Tablet
Benefits of Calembic Tablet
In Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common condition that causes bones to become fragile and brittle so that they break (fracture) more easily. Fractures may be painful and restrict a person’s ability to carry out their normal daily tasks. Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet reduces the risk of a fracture occurring in osteoporosis. Calcium helps in the growth and development of bones as well as maintain strong bones. Since osteoporosis doesn’t usually have any symptoms such as pain (until a fracture occurs) you might not ‘feel’ any immediate benefit from your treatment with Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet. Keep taking it untill your doctor asks you to stop. Along with medicines, eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D like dairy products, green leafy vegetables etc.

How Calembic Tablet works
Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Ibandronic Acid and Calcium which treat osteoporosis. Ibandronic Acid is a bisphosphonate.
