Uses, Side Effects, Price of CALCIFIT D Delicious Mixed Fruit Flavored chewable Tablet 10's:

CALCIFIT D contains Cholecalciferol which belongs to the group of medicine called Vitamin D analogs. It is used in the treatment and prevention of vitamin D deficiency. Cholecalciferol is a type of vitamin D3 which is synthesized by the skin when exposed to natural sunlight or obtained by taking a healthy diet. A deficiency of vitamin D3 might occur if your lifestyle or diet does not provide enough vitamin D or in certain conditions when your body requires more vitamin D (for example: when you are pregnant).

Vitamin D3 is necessary for the proper growth and development of bones, teeth, and the immune system in children and adolescents. It also contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth, muscle function, and serum calcium levels in adults. It acts by increasing the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the diet and enhances bone formation and growth.

CALCIFIT D should be used with caution in patients eating foods or drinking milk enriched with vitamin D. During treatment, your doctor might recommend you have regular blood tests to monitor the amount of calcium in your blood.

This medicine is generally well tolerated and does not cause any side effects. However, if you experience any skin reactions such as rash or itching, check with your physician. Before taking this medicine inform your doctor if you have any kidney, liver, or heart disease.
