Calrig 60K Tablet

Calrig 60K Tablet contains Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) 60000 IU (1.5 mg) tablet.

Treatment and prevention of vitamin D deficiency, adjunct in osteoporosis/osteopenia, rickets/osteomalacia, deficiency due to limited sun exposure or malabsorption

Cholecalciferol is converted in the body to active vitamin D, which increases absorption of calcium and phosphate from the intestine. It helps maintain normal blood calcium levels and supports bone mineralisation and muscle function.

Oral tablet. Usually taken once weekly or as prescribed (commonly 60,000 IU weekly for 6–8 weeks, then monthly maintenance as advised). Take with or after food (preferably a meal containing fat) for better absorption. Swallow with water; do not exceed prescribed dose.

Nausea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, headache, weakness, increased urination, thirst

Use only under medical advice if you have kidney disease, kidney stones, hypercalcaemia, hyperparathyroidism, sarcoidosis or other granulomatous disorders. Overdose can cause vitamin D toxicity with high calcium (confusion, severe vomiting, dehydration, arrhythmias). Monitor calcium/phosphate and renal function in long-term/high-dose use. Not a substitute for calcium if dietary intake is low unless advised.

Thiazide diuretics (risk of hypercalcaemia), digoxin/other cardiac glycosides (arrhythmia risk with hypercalcaemia), anticonvulsants like phenytoin/phenobarbital/carbamazepine (reduced vitamin D effect), glucocorticoids (reduced effect), cholestyramine/orlistat/mineral oil (reduced absorption), aluminium/magnesium-containing antacids in renal impairment (risk of toxicity), other vitamin D/calcium supplements (additive hypercalcaemia)

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from light and moisture. Keep in original pack and out of reach of children.
