Calsemin-M Tablet 10'S

Calsemin-M Tablet belongs to the class of nutritional supplements, primarily used to treat various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body like hypocalcaemia, osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia (softening or deforming of bones due to lack of calcium). It also prevents muscle cramps and bone loss. Hypocalcaemia is a condition caused due to low blood calcium levels. This can occur due to changes in hormones or decreased calcium consumption through dietary sources.

Calsemin-M Tablet consists of Calcium carbonate (mineral), Magnesium (mineral), and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Calcium carbonate prevents or treats calcium deficiency and provides essential nutrients necessary for bone formation and maintenance. Magnesium helps in the normal functioning of muscles and nerves. Cholecalciferol helps maintain blood calcium levels and mineralization of bone. It is used to treat and prevent bone disorders, such as rickets and osteomalacia.

Your doctor will decide the dosage and duration based on your medical condition. Calsemin-M Tablet is likely safe to use. In some cases, it may cause common side effects like constipation and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.
