About Calct Forte Softgel Capsule

Calct Forte Softgel Capsule is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. 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). 

Calct Forte Softgel Capsule contains Calcium carbonate, Calcitriol, Folic acid, Vitamin B6, and Methylcobalamin. Calcium carbonate makes the bones stronger by increasing their density. Calcitriol raises the Vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. Folic acid helps in producing new blood cells and prevents low folate levels. Vitamin B6 is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin regulates body functions like cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. 

Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition. Sometimes, Calct Forte Softgel Capsule may cause common side effects like nausea, stomach upset, and diarrhoea. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult a doctor.

If you are allergic to any of the components in Calct Forte Softgel Capsule , please inform your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your doctor before taking Calct Forte Softgel Capsule .
