About Logical Syrup

Logical Syrup belongs to the class of ‘Multi-minerals’ primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. It is used in the treatment of various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone) and latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones). Logical Syrup can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium.

Logical Syrup consists of three medicines, namely Calcium carbonate (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) and lysine (Amino Acid). Calcium carbonate is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is used in the absorption of calcium in the blood, which helps in the processing of essential minerals like calcium and phosphorus in the body. Lack of Vitamin D3 results in bone weakening, bone pain, and skin diseases. Lysine is a building block of essential proteins which improve appetite and digestion.

You are advised to take Logical Syrup as long as your doctor has recommended it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, Logical Syrup can cause side effects like diarrhoea, constipation, and stomach pain. Most of these side effects of Logical Syrup do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. Call your doctor immediately if you notice little or no urinating, weight gain, or high levels of calcium in the blood, which can be detected by certain blood tests. The symptoms include nausea, constipation, increased thirst, muscle weakness, bone pain, confusion, or feeling tired.

If you are known to be allergic to Logical Syrup or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Logical Syrup . Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. Logical Syrup may pass into the breast milk. Hence, breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting Logical Syrup . Do not take Logical Syrup if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food).

Uses of Logical Syrup

Logical Syrup is used in treating Osteoporosis, Osteomalacia/Rickets, Calcium deficiency, and Hypoparathyroidism.

Medicinal Benefits

Logical Syrup is a combination of three drugs, namely Calcium carbonate(mineral), Lysine (amino acid), and Cholecalciferol(Vitamin D3), that is used to treat low blood calcium levels and various associated conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone) and tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Calcium carbonate is a mineral and prevents or treats calcium deficiency. It helps to maintain bone and teeth health. Cholecalciferol(Vitamin D3) treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid glands' decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. Lysine is a building block of essential proteins which improve appetite and digestion.

Drug-Drug Interactions Checker List

  • ASPIRIN
  • CYMBALTA
  • DULOXETINE
  • LEVOTHYROXINE

Habit Forming

No

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Include dairy products like milk, yoghurt, cheese, or milk-based custard.
  • Eat a daily serving of broccoli, cabbage, bok choy, spinach, and other green leafy vegetables.
  • Snack on calcium-rich nuts like Brazil nuts or almonds.
  • Sprinkle sesame seeds over your food, vegetables, and salads. Sesame seeds are high in calcium.
  • Avoid or reduce the intake of caffeine, soft drinks, and alcohol that inhibit calcium absorption.
  • Replace the meat with tofu to add extra calcium to your food.

Special Advise

  • Clinical monitoring of serum electrolyte concentrations and cardiac function is recommended.
  • A low phosphate diet is recommended to control serum phosphorus levels in patients undergoing dialysis.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens and brittle bones by decreasing bone density.  As bones become less dense, they weaken and are more likely to break. Breaking a bone is a serious complication of osteoporosis, especially in older patients. Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than are men. Signs and symptoms include back pain caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, loss of height over time, a stooped posture, a bone that breaks much more easily than expected.

Osteomalacia/Rickets: A bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D. Adults can experience a similar condition known as osteomalacia. It causes bone pain, poor growth, and soft, weak bones that can lead to bone deformities.

Tetany: A disease condition due to low levels of calcium (hypocalcemia) in the body causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).

Hypoparathyroidism: It is a disease characterized by low levels of parathyroid hormone. This can cause low calcium levels and trigger tetany.

Liver

Caution

Let your doctor know if you have any history of liver diseases before taking Logical Syrup . Hepatic impairment/liver disease can alter the metabolic and therapeutic activity of certain Vitamin D forms.

Kidney

Caution

It is advised to seek doctor advice before starting Logical Syrup if you have kidney diseases like kidney stones or undergoing dialysis. Calcitriol in Logical Syrup increases inorganic phosphate levels in serum; hence caution should be taken in patients undergoing dialysis to maintain adequate phosphorus levels and avoid ectopic calcification (calcium deposition).

Logical Syrup is a nutritional supplement used to treat low calcium levels in the blood. It keeps the bones healthy and strong and is even effective in chronic arthritis and osteoporosis.
Logical Syrup is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use Logical Syrup during hypercalcemia, since it causes the overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.
Do not use Logical Syrup if you are allergic to Logical Syrup or any other ingredients in it. Logical Syrup is not recommended in hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), metastatic calcification (extra deposits of calcium in the body), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food).
Do not stop using Logical Syrup even if you feel better until the doctor's advised course is finished. Your symptoms may improve, but the disease may not be cured completely.
