How Does It Work?

• Vitamin D3 plays a very crucial role in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the intestine, which is critical for the formation, growth and regeneration of bones. It supports healthy bones and teeth.
• It also plays a role in cell growth, neuromuscular and immune function, and the reduction of inflammation.
• If you do not get enough vitamin D, you are more likely to experience fractures, muscle pain and weakness.
• Adequate levels of vitamin D in the body can prevent rickets in children and bone softening in adults and the elderly.

Interactions with other medicines

• Cipcal D3 may interact with steroids (such as prednisolone), as they can reduce the effect of Vitamin D in the body.
• It may interact with anticonvulsant medicines (such as phenytoin or phenobarbital), because these drugs can lower the levels of Vitamin D in the blood.
• Cipcal D3 may interact with heart medicines (such as digoxin), as high calcium levels caused by Vitamin D can increase the risk of irregular heartbeat.
• It may interact with diuretics or water tablets (such as thiazides), because these can increase calcium levels in the blood when taken together with Vitamin D.
• Cipcal D3 may interact with antacids containing aluminum or magnesium, since using them frequently may affect the absorption or action of Vitamin D.
• It may interact with cholestyramine and other medicines used to lower cholesterol, as they can reduce the absorption of Vitamin D from the intestine.
• Cipcal D3 may interact with laxatives containing mineral oil, because they may decrease the absorption of Vitamin D in the gut.
• Always inform your doctor or pharmacist about all the medicines, supplements, or herbal products you are taking before starting Cipcal D3. This will help avoid unwanted interactions and ensure safe and effective treatment.
