Calcium, Vitamin D3, and Methylcobalamin
This combination medication is a nutritional supplement. Calcium is essential for building and maintaining strong bones. Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) helps the body efficiently absorb calcium from the intestines. Methylcobalamin is an active form of Vitamin B12 that helps in the production of myelin, which protects nerve fibers and promotes nerve regeneration, making this combination particularly useful for diabetic neuropathy and osteo-degenerative disorders.
Dosage by Body Weight
Typically taken as one tablet or capsule daily after a meal to maximize calcium absorption, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Avoid taking it with high-fiber foods, caffeine, or iron supplements as they can reduce absorption.
