Wal D3 DS Drops

Drop

Treatment and prevention of vitamin D deficiency, adjunct in calcium deficiency, rickets/osteomalacia, supports bone and teeth health

Cholecalciferol is converted in the liver and kidneys to active vitamin D, which increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate. This helps maintain normal blood calcium levels and supports bone mineralisation.

Oral drops. Shake well before use. Measure the prescribed dose using the dropper and give directly or mix with a small amount of milk/water. Can be taken with or without food; taking with food (fat-containing) may improve absorption. Use dose and duration as advised by a doctor.
