Indications & Uses
FizyCal-D is indicated for:
Pharmacology
Your blood needs enough calcium to keep many body functions working, and the body will not tolerate a shortage of it, even for a short time. Clinical evidence suggests that calcium helps prevent and treat osteoporosis and the fractures that go with it.
Vitamin D is also essential for healthy bones, because it helps the body absorb calcium from the GI tract. It stimulates bone formation as well. Clinical studies show that calcium and vitamin D work together, with a combined effect on bone growth and on preventing osteoporosis and fractures.
Dosage Reference
Reference Information Only
Dosages shown are general references from official sources. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized dosing.
Adults:
Adults can take 1 to 2 tablets a day. It's best to have one tablet in the morning and one in the evening, or follow whatever the physician has directed. Drop the tablet into a glass of water. It dissolves within 1 to 2 minutes, and you should drink the solution straight away.
Side Effects
Calcium Carbonate taken by mouth may irritate the GI tract, and it can also cause constipation. Calcium on its own rarely causes hypercalcemia, but it can happen when large doses are given to patients with chronic renal failure. Other side effects include allergic reactions, irregular heartbeats, nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, dry mouth, drowsiness and skin rash.
Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
If hypercalcemia develops, stopping the medicine is usually enough to bring serum calcium back to normal. Calcium salts need to be used with care in people who have sarcoidosis, renal disease or cardiac disease, and in those taking cardiac glycosides. People with a history of stone formation should also be advised to drink more fluids.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
You can use this effervescent tablet during pregnancy if you have a calcium and vitamin D deficiency. If you start taking it in the third trimester, though, keep your total daily intake within 1500 mg of calcium and 1000 IU of vitamin D. The preparation can also be used while you are breastfeeding.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
