About Dycical Tablet

Dycical Tablet belongs to the class of 'Vitamins,' primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. Dycical Tablet effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, like Vitamin D deficiency. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body cannot 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).

Dycical Tablet consists of elemental calcium and vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol). Elemental calcium is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Vitamin D3 is a steroid hormone produced in the skin when exposed to ultraviolet light or obtained from food sources. It helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and the mineralization of bone.

Take Dycical Tablet as recommended. Dycical Tablet is likely safe to consume. Sometimes, it may cause side effects like constipation and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Do not take Dycical Tablet if you're allergic to any ingredient in it. Please inform your doctor if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food), low levels of bile, and phosphate imbalance before starting Dycical Tablet. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Dycical Tablet. Do not use Dycical Tablet if you have kidney problems/stones or have a high Vitamin D level in your blood. Dycical Tablet is safe for children only when recommended by the doctor.
