CALCITRIOL+CALCIUM+MAGNESIUM+ZINC+VITAMIN K2 7
About
CALCITRIOL+CALCIUM+MAGNESIUM+ZINC+VITAMIN K2 7 is used to treat post-menopausal osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). Postmenopause is a condition in which women have not had a period for 12 months or longer. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that weakens and thins bones by decreasing bone density, which is common in post-menopausal women. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break.
CALCITRIOL+CALCIUM+MAGNESIUM+ZINC+VITAMIN K2 7 contains Calcitriol, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, and vitamin K2-7. Calcitriol is a man-made form of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency. It raises Vitamin D levels and thereby helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the stomach. Calcium is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Magnesium and Zinc are minerals that provide essential nutrients to the body. Vitamin K2-7 helps build and maintain bones.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens and thins bones by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break. Post-menopausal women are more likely to develop osteoporosis than men because, at menopause, a woman’s ovaries stop the production of oestrogen (a female hormone), which is essential to keep bones healthy. Following menopause, bone loss occurs, making bones weak and more likely to break. Also, long-term use of steroids may affect bone strength and cause osteoporosis in both men and women. Signs and symptoms include back pain caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, loss of height over time, a stooped posture, and a bone that breaks much more easily than expected.
