Calcirol 60K IU Cholecalciferol Sachet | For Bone Health

Calcirol sachet contains vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). It is used to manage and prevent vitamin D deficiency, particularly in people with little sun exposure or low dietary intake, by helping the body absorb calcium and phosphorus, which are essential for maintaining healthy bones and teeth. It supports bone strength, reduces bone pain and weakness, and promotes immune function and muscle health. This makes it especially beneficial for those with increased nutritional needs.

Usually, one sachet of Calcriol is taken once weekly. It is best taken with milk or a meal to improve the absorption of vitamin D in the body. Good exposure to sunlight and a balanced diet can also help maintain vitamin levels. The duration you should take it for will depend on your vitamin D levels. Follow your doctor’s guidance for the best results. Do not take more than the recommended dose.

Calcirol is generally well-tolerated when taken as recommended. However, taking excessive amounts may increase calcium levels in the body and cause weakness, frequent urination, or digestive issues. If you notice any unusual effects, stop taking the sachet and consult your doctor.

Store the sachet in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight and moisture. Tell your doctor about any medical conditions you have. Do not replace it with a healthy diet or proper medical care.
