About Calsemin-M Tablet

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).
