Description

Cipla Cipcal HD is a nutritional supplement containing Calcium Carbonate, Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol), and Vitamin K2-7. It is primarily used to support bone health, prevent or treat calcium and vitamin D deficiency, and manage conditions like osteoporosis.

Uses:

Cipcal HD helps in the formation and maintenance of strong bones and teeth. Calcium is essential for bone density, while Vitamin D3 improves calcium absorption in the body. Vitamin K2-7 aids in the proper placement of calcium into bones rather than soft tissues, thus preventing arterial calcification. It is commonly prescribed to postmenopausal women, elderly patients, and individuals at risk of fractures or with low bone mineral density. It may also be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding, under medical guidance, to meet increased calcium needs.

Side Effects:

While generally safe when taken as directed, Cipcal HD may cause mild side effects such as:

• Constipation

• Stomach upset

• Nausea

• Metallic taste in the mouth

Rarely, excess intake can lead to:

• Hypercalcemia (high calcium levels)

• Kidney stones

• Muscle weakness
