CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE
About CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE
CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE belongs to the class of 'Nutritional supplements', primarily used to treat various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body like Vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), hypoparathyroidism (parathyroid glands make low levels of calcium in the body), latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels), and rickets or osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones due to lack of calcium).
CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE consists of Calcium (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), and Glycine (amino acid). Calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients that help bone formation and maintenance. Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium, phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Glycine is an amino acid that improves bone health and reduces the risk of diseases like osteoporosis.
Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition. CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE is likely safe to use. In some cases, it may cause common side effects like constipation, nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if any of the side effects persist or worsen, please consult a doctor.
If you are allergic to CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Please tell your doctor if you have hypercalcaemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), heart/liver/blood vessel diseases, kidney stones, or malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food) before starting CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE.

Medicinal Benefits
CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE is used to treat low blood calcium levels. It effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body like Vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis, hypoparathyroidism, latent tetany, and rickets or osteomalacia. CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE consists of Calcium (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), and Glycine (amino acid). Calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients that help bone formation and maintenance. Vitamin D3 helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. It aids in calcium absorption enabling bone growth and repair. It further prevents cartilage degeneration. Glycine improves bone health and reduces the risk of diseases like osteoporosis. It also boosts creatinine levels in the body further leading to increased muscle strength, mass, and power.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Vitamin D deficiency: When a person cannot get enough Vitamin D through food and exposure to sunlight, it leads to vitamin D deficiency. It often leads to thin, brittle or misshapen bones.
Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that makes the bones weak and brittle by decreasing bone density.
Tetany: A disease condition due to low calcium levels (hypocalcaemia) in the body that causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).
Osteomalacia/Rickets: A disease caused by softening and weakening of bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D.
Hypoparathyroidism: It is a disease characterized by low levels of parathyroid hormone. This can cause low calcium levels and trigger tetany (muscle cramps, spasms or tremors).
FAQs
CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE is a dietary supplement that treats low calcium levels in the blood. It consists of Calcium, Cholecalciferol, and Glycine. When you don't get enough calcium and vitamin D from food sources and sunlight exposure, CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE helps replenish those low levels.
Milk is considered to be the best source of calcium. You can take CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE with milk.
CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE during hypercalcaemia since it causes the overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.
Antacids may increase the absorption of Calcium from CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE. Hence, taking CALCIUM+CHOLECALCIFEROL+GLYCINE two hours before or four hours after taking antacids is advised.
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.
