FAQs

Rockbon Kit treats low levels of calcium in the blood and osteoporosis. It consists of Elemental Calcium, Calcitriol, and Ibandronic acid. These constituents help in providing calcium to the body and help in bone formation and maintenance. Rockbon Kit further helps in restoring bone mass and reduces the chances of easy fractures.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and follow your usual dosage.
Calcium supplements may cause kidney stones due to excess calcium deposition when used for a prolonged period. Please consult your doctor before taking Rockbon Kit if you have any kidney problems or a history of kidney stones.
Rockbon Kit is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use Rockbon Kit if you have hypercalcemia since it causes an overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.
Calcitriol in Rockbon Kit can increase inorganic phosphate levels in serum; hence it should be cautiously used in patients undergoing dialysis to maintain adequate phosphorus levels and avoid ectopic calcification (calcium deposition). It is advised to follow a low phosphate diet to control serum phosphorus levels in patients undergoing dialysis.

About Rockbon Kit

Rockbon Kit is a combination medicine primarily used to treat osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). Osteoporosis is a bone disease that makes the bones weak and brittle by decreasing bone density. Symptoms include backache, easily breaking bones, and hunched or stooped posture.

Rockbon Kit contains Elemental Calcium (mineral), Calcitriol (Vitamin D3), and Ibandronic acid (biphosphonate). Elemental Calcium provides essential nutrients necessary for bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 that raises Vitamin D levels and increases calcium levels in the blood. Ibandronic acid is a bisphosphonate that reverses bone loss and increases bone mass.

Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition. In some cases, Rockbon Kit can cause side effects like bone/muscle pain, muscle cramps, stiffness in joints, headache, back pain, indigestion, heartburn, and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects of Rockbon Kit do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor. 

Please tell your doctor if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). Brief your medical history to the doctor in advance if you have heart/kidney/liver diseases, kidney stones, and ulcers. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Rockbon Kit is not recommended for children and adolescents below 18 years.

Medicinal Benefits

Rockbon Kit is used to treat osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). Rockbon Kit consists of Elemental Calcium, Calcitriol (Vitamin D3), and Ibandronic acid. Elemental Calcium provides essential nutrients necessary for bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 which helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine. Ibandronic acid belongs to the class of bisphosphonates. It reverses bone loss and increases bone mass. It works by inhibiting the action of osteoclasts (a bone cell that breaks down bone tissue), thus helping in the reduction of fractures.

Directions for Use

Swallow it as a whole with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food at regular intervals, as prescribed by the doctor. Do not crush, chew or break it.
