Calcium-P 110ml Suspension

Calcium and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) are both essential nutrients that play a complementary role in maintaining bone health and overall physiological functions. Cholecalciferol is converted into its active form, calcitriol, in the liver and kidneys. Calcitriol influences the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which plays a role in maintaining calcium levels by mobilizing calcium from bones and increasing calcium reabsorption in the kidneys. Vitamin D3 also helps maintain appropriate blood levels of calcium and phosphate, which are necessary for bone mineralization. It prevents excessive calcium loss from the bones and promotes the proper deposition of calcium in bone tissue. Calcitriol increases the intestinal absorption of calcium by enhancing the expression of calcium-binding proteins in the gut. This process ensures that sufficient calcium is available in the bloodstream for bone formation and maintenance. Calcium is a critical element in the formation and maintenance of bone mineral density. It combines with phosphate to form hydroxyapatite, the mineral that gives bones their strength and rigidity. Calcium ions play a vital role in various cellular functions, including muscle contraction, neurotransmitter release, and blood clotting. It acts as a signaling molecule that regulates the activity of enzymes and hormones.

Drug interactions with Calcium, Cholecalciferol combination include:

• Iron supplements (calcium may interfere with the absorption of iron)
• Thyroid medications (calcium may reduce the absorption of thyroid hormones)
• Certain antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones) (calcium may impair the absorption of these drugs)
• Diuretics (e.g., thiazides) (may increase calcium levels)
• Bisphosphonates (e.g., alendronate) (calcium may interfere with the absorption of bisphosphonates)
• Magnesium supplements (high doses of calcium and magnesium together may affect absorption and balance)
• Corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone) (may affect calcium metabolism and bone density)
• Other vitamin D supplements (may increase risk of vitamin D toxicity)

The food interactions that should be considered while using Calcium + Cholecalciferol are:

• Avoid alcohol as it can interfere with calcium and cholecalciferol absorption
• High-fat meals may impact the absorption of calcium and cholecalciferol
• Foods high in oxalates (e.g., spinach) can reduce calcium absorption
• High-fiber foods can affect the absorption of calcium and other nutrients.
