Medical Description

Gemcal-D3 capsule is a health supplement for maintaining strong bones. It is used to treat or prevent low levels of calcium in the body during calcium deficiency. Gemcal-D3 capsule is also used to supplement calcium during growth, pregnancy, and lactation, and can also be used for treating bone weakness conditions like osteoporosis. Gemcal-D3 capsule contains calcium and Vitamin D3/cholecalciferol as active substances. This supplement is prescribed to a patient whose dietary intake of calcium is less than the recommended amount. Calcium is necessary for the normal functioning of nerves, cells, muscles, and bones. Vitamin D helps absorb calcium and phosphorus in the body. However, when the amount of calcium in the blood is less, the body takes up the calcium from bones, thereby weakening bones. Gemcal-D3 capsule should be taken exactly as recommended by the doctor or as per the instruction leaflet.
