Description

Abbott Supra Rize Cholecalciferol USP 60,000IU Capsule provides the goodness of vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in maintaining calcium balance and bone health. The majority of patients with vitamin D deficiency are asymptomatic. However, even mild chronic vitamin D deficiency can lead to chronic hypocalcemia and hyperparathyroidism which can contribute risk of osteoporosis, falls and fractures especially in the elderly population. Patients with severe vitamin D deficiency can experience symptoms associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism including bone pain, body, fatigue, muscle twitching (fasciculations), and weakness. Fragility fractures may result from chronic vitamin D deficiency leading to osteoporosis. However, subclinical vitamin D deficiency is still widely prevalent in both developed and developing countries. Subclinical vitamin-D deficiency is associated with osteoporosis, increased risk of falls and fragility fractures. | Key Ingredients: Cholecalciferol IP (Vitamin D3): 60,000 IU (International units) | Key Benefits: It is used to treat vitamin D deficiency and thereby help in bone problems and to aid the growth and development of bones The capsule contains Vitamin D3, a fat-soluble vitamin that helps the gut to absorb calcium from food and the body to maintain adequate levels of two minerals essential for bone health, calcium and phosphorus Vitamin D is known to help the body absorb calcium, and it plays a role in bone health Vitamin D may increase muscle strength, thereby preventing falls Many studies have shown an association between low vitamin D concentrations and an increased risk of fractures and falls in older adults.
