About CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's

CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's belongs to the class of 'dietary supplements, primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's effectively treats various 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 latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium.

CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's consists of three medicines, namely: Calcium (mineral), Calcitriol (Vitamin D3), and Menaquinone (Vitamin K2). Calcium is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid glands' decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. It raises Vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. This helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine. Menaquinone is also known as Vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 helps to maintain bone density by promoting calcium transport from the bloodstream into the bone. Calcium-regulating proteins also require menaquinone in the arteries.

Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. In some cases, CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's can cause side effects like constipation or stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, mood changes, weakness, tiredness, fast or pounding heartbeat, bone/muscle pain, and headache. Most of these side effects of CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Please tell your doctor if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). Brief your medical history if you have any heart/kidney/liver/blood vessel diseases, and kidney stones before starting CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's . Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's . Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's may pass into the breast milk; hence breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting CETJOINT K27 CAPSULE 15's .

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that makes the bones weak and brittle by decreasing bone density. It is known as a silent disease since it is not revealed until a bone is broken easily or fractured. Symptoms include backache, easily breaking bones, and hunched or stooped posture. Thinning of bones can be prevented by treating with medications, calcium supplements, a calcium-rich diet, and lifestyle changes.

Osteomalacia/Rickets: A bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D.

Tetany: A disease condition due to low levels of calcium (hypocalcaemia) in the body that 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.
