Shelcure D3 Suspension

DESCRIPTION

Shelcure D3 Suspension is a nutritional supplement primarily used to treat or prevent calcium and Vitamin D3 deficiencies. It is often prescribed for maintaining bone health, especially in children, the elderly, and during pregnancy or lactation.

Composition

Each 5ml of the suspension typically contains:

• Calcium Carbonate: 625 mg (equivalent to 250 mg of elemental Calcium)

• Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol): 125 IU

• Zinc: Some formulations (like those from Synthokind) also include approximately 22.5 mg of Zinc.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Bone Health: Supports the development and maintenance of strong bones and teeth.

• Deficiency Treatment: Manages conditions like osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and rickets (in children).

• Enhanced Absorption: Vitamin D3 is crucial for the efficient absorption of calcium from the intestines into the bloodstream.

• Immune Support: If zinc is present, it aids in cell growth and strengthens the immune system.

Usage Instructions

• Shake Well: Always shake the bottle thoroughly before use to ensure the active ingredients are evenly distributed.

• Timing: It is generally recommended to take the suspension after a meal (preferably the evening meal) to maximize absorption and reduce the chance of an upset stomach.

• Dosage: Use a proper measuring cup or spoon. The exact dose should be determined by a healthcare professional based on age and clinical need.

Most people tolerate the suspension well, but some may experience:

• Constipation or bloating
