Treatment and prevention of vitamin D deficiency, rickets/osteomalacia, adjunct in osteoporosis and fracture healing support

Cholecalciferol is converted in the body to active vitamin D metabolites that increase calcium and phosphate absorption from the gut. It helps maintain bone mineralization and muscle function by regulating calcium-phosphate balance.

Chew the tablet completely before swallowing. Usually taken once weekly or as directed by the physician; can be taken with or after food (preferably with a meal containing some fat). Do not exceed prescribed dose.

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

Use with caution in hypercalcemia, hypervitaminosis D, kidney stones, severe renal impairment, sarcoidosis or other granulomatous disorders. Excess intake may cause vitamin D toxicity and high calcium. Monitor calcium/vitamin D levels if on prolonged high-dose therapy.

Thiazide diuretics (risk of hypercalcemia), digoxin/cardiac glycosides (arrhythmia risk with high calcium), anticonvulsants like phenytoin/phenobarbital (reduced vitamin D effect), glucocorticoids (reduced effect), cholestyramine/orlistat (reduced absorption)

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