Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Calcium needs can change during pregnancy. Talk to your doctor before taking Shelcal Cm tablet, so the right amount can be worked out for you.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

If you are breastfeeding, check with your doctor before taking this medicine so your calcium needs can be assessed.

Driving

Driving

This medicine does not affect your ability to drive.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Heavy alcohol use can lower calcium absorption and affect bone health. If you drink, keep it moderate and mention it to your doctor.

Directions for Use

Take Shelcal Cm tablet as a whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush or chew it. Take it with food, ideally your largest meal, to help absorption and reduce stomach irritation. Try to take it at the same time each day.

Storage and disposal

Store Shelcal Cm tablet at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in its original pack and out of the sight and reach of children. Do not use it after the expiry date, and hand any unused medicine to a pharmacist for safe disposal.

Quick Tips

  • Take it with your largest meal for better absorption.
  • Some safe time in the sun helps your body make its own vitamin D.
  • Check that your other supplements do not also contain calcium and vitamin D, to avoid taking too much.
  • Space it a few hours apart from antacids and thyroid medicines.

Dosage

Overdose

Taking much more than advised may cause nausea, vomiting, extreme thirst, frequent urination, confusion, and muscle weakness from too much calcium. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Calcium is a mineral the body needs to build and keep bones and teeth strong, and it also helps muscles and nerves work normally. Vitamin D3 helps the gut take in calcium from food and supplements and helps the body hold on to it. By supplying both together, Shelcal Cm tablet tops up calcium levels and makes sure the body can actually put that calcium to use.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Shelcal Cm tablet works, and calcium can reduce how well some others are absorbed. Tell your doctor about all the medicines and supplements you take. In particular, mention antacids, thyroid medicines, iron supplements, and certain antibiotics, as you may need to space these apart from your calcium dose by a few hours.

Interactions with food items

You can take Shelcal Cm tablet with milk, which is itself a good source of calcium. Very high fibre meals eaten at the same time may slightly lower how much calcium your body absorbs.
