Suncalci Sachets | Cholecalciferol Granules (Sugar Free)

Description

Cholecalciferol is a type of vitamin D that is produced in the skin when exposed to sunlight. It is also obtained from certain foods and supplements. Once ingested, Cholecalciferol is converted in the liver to 25-hydroxyvitamin D and then in the kidneys to the active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D. This active form of vitamin D helps to increase the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the body, which are essential for maintaining healthy bones and teeth. Cholecalciferol Granules are beneficial for treating and preventing vitamin D deficiency, which can lead to weakened bones, muscle weakness, and other health problems. The medication is also used to treat certain bone disorders, such as osteoporosis and osteomalacia. Vitamin D supplementation may also have benefits for the immune system, heart health, and overall well-being. These are generally well-tolerated when taken as directed. However, like all medications, there is a risk of side effects. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Rare but serious side effects may include high levels of calcium in the blood, which can lead to kidney damage or other health problems. Patients should inform their healthcare provider if they experience any unusual symptoms while taking this medication. The dosage and administration instructions for Cholecalciferol Granules should be followed as prescribed by the healthcare provider or as indicated on the packaging. The recommended dosage may vary depending on the patient’s age, weight, and the severity of the vitamin D deficiency. It is important to take the medication as directed and to continue taking it for the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve. Patients should not stop taking the medication or change the dosage without first consulting with their healthcare provider.
