About Bonical-C Tablet

Bonical-C Tablet belongs to the class of nutritional supplements used to prevent or treat low blood calcium levels in people who cannot get sufficient calcium from their diets. Bonical-C Tablet 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).

Bonical-C Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely: Calcium carbonate (mineral) and Calcitriol (vitamin D3). Calcium carbonate is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Calcitriol is a human-made form of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the decreased activity of parathyroid glands) 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 stomach.

Take Bonical-C Tablet as advised by your doctor. In some cases, you may experience constipation, stomach upset, or gas. Most of these side effects of Bonical-C Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Bonical-C Tablet or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor before using Bonical-C Tablet . Bonical-C Tablet should be used with caution in children and only if recommended by a doctor. Calcitriol in Bonical-C Tablet can affect growth in children. Inform your doctor if your child is not growing at a normal rate while using Bonical-C Tablet . If you have cancer, kidney stones, high levels of calcium or vitamin D in the blood, parathyroid gland disorder, liver, kidney, or heart problems, sarcoidosis (growth of tiny collections of inflammatory cells in any part of the body), Crohn's disease, Whipple's disease (a bacterial infection affecting joints and digestive system), achlorhydria (absence of stomach acid), inform your doctor before taking Bonical-C Tablet .

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens and brittle bones by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, 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 men. 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.

Osteomalacia/Rickets: Rickets is 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 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.
