Introduction of Shelcal 500mg Tablet

Shelcal 500mg Tablet is used in the treatment of vitamin D deficiency and osteoporosis. It helps the body to absorb calcium. Calcium is essential for maintaining strong and healthy bones. It is used when your diet does not provide enough calcium.

Shelcal 500mg Tablet should be taken as directed by your doctor. It is best taken with or after food, as this helps your body absorb it, and you should take it regularly to get the most benefits. If you are using it to treat osteoporosis, you will also be prescribed other medicines. This medicine may be only part of a complete treatment program that includes making changes to your diet and taking calcium and vitamin supplements. Learn about the foods you should eat to ensure you get enough calcium and vitamin D.

Shelcal 500mg Tablet has few side effects, and none are common. If you take too much, you may feel weakness, muscle pain, or a metallic taste in your mouth. If you experience any such side effects, speak with your doctor. They may be able to help you reduce or treat the symptoms.

Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have high calcium levels in your blood or if you have any heart, kidney, or liver disease. Some other medicines can decrease the absorption of vitamin D3, so let your doctor know about all the other medicines you are taking to make sure you are safe. This medicine may help during pregnancy when your body needs more vitamin D, but too much could harm your baby. Discuss it with your doctor.


 

BENEFITS OF SHELCAL TABLET

In Treatment of Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a common condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It often occurs in women after menopause. Vitamin D is important for calcium absorption and helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in your body. If you do not have enough calcium, it can damage your bones. Vitamin D will help keep your bones strong and healthy and reduce the risk of them becoming weak and more likely to break.

Regular exercise (especially weight-bearing exercise), healthy foods containing calcium and vitamin D, and reducing alcohol and tobacco consumption can help improve bone strength.
