Caltate CT Capsule is used to support bone health and prevent conditions like osteoporosis. It helps maintain proper calcium and vitamin D levels in the body, keeping your bones strong and reducing the risk of fractures, especially in older adults or postmenopausal women.
Can Caltate CT Capsule be used if I already take vitamin D or calcium supplements?

Why is it important to monitor calcium levels while taking Caltate CT Capsule?
Taking too much of Caltate CT Capsule can lead to excess calcium in the blood, which may cause nausea, fatigue, muscle pain, or more serious effects like kidney damage or tissue calcification. Regular blood tests help your doctor ensure your calcium levels stay safe and balanced.

During Caltate CT Capsule treatment, what symptoms should I watch for that may mean too much calcium in my body?
While you are on Caltate CT Capsule treatment, if you feel extreme thirst, frequent urination, stomach pain, confusion, or notice muscle weakness, these could be signs of high calcium. Contact your doctor immediately if any of these occur while taking this medicine.
Can I take antacids or other supplements along with Caltate CT Capsule?
It is advised to avoid taking magnesium-containing antacids or zinc-rich supplements while using Caltate CT Capsule unless prescribed. These can interact with the ingredients and cause unwanted effects like high magnesium or zinc toxicity.
Are there any serious side effects of Caltate CT Capsule to be aware of?
Serious side effects of Caltate CT Capsule may include severe vomiting, dehydration, restlessness, irregular heartbeat, or kidney complications. These usually happen if the dose is too high or taken for a long time without monitoring. Seek medical help right away if you experience any of these symptoms.
Can I use Caltate CT Capsule if I am on medication for high blood pressure or seizures?
Some medicines, such as thiazide diuretics (used for high blood pressure) and anticonvulsants, may interact with Caltate CT Capsule and change calcium levels. Always inform your doctor about all medicines you take before starting this medicine.
Is Caltate CT Capsule safe for long-term use in elderly patients?
