About CalciQuick-B12 Suspension 200 ml

CalciQuick-B12 Suspension 200 ml belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It is used to treat various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body like Vitamin D deficiency, vitamin B12 deficiency, osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), hypoparathyroidism (parathyroid glands make low levels of calcium in the body), latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels), and rickets or osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones due to lack of calcium). Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, skin disorders, digestive issues, and dementia (memory loss).

CalciQuick-B12 Suspension 200 ml consists of three medicines: Calcium phosphate, Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), and Cyanocobalamin. Calcium phosphate is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Cholecalciferol is a steroid hormone produced in the skin when exposed to ultraviolet light or obtained from food sources. It helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Cyanocobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 that helps in the proper functioning of the brain, nerves, and red blood cells.
