Gemcal Plus Capsule 15

Gemcal Plus Capsule is used for the following:

• Managing and preventing deficiencies of vitamin D and calcium.

• Assisting in the recovery from rickets and osteomalacia, conditions that soften and weaken bones.

• Lowering the risk of osteoporosis, a condition that causes bones to become fragile.

Please follow these instructions while taking the Gemcal Plus Capsule:

• Swallow the soft gel capsule whole with a glass of water.

• It can be taken irrespective of meals.

• Do not chew or crush the capsule.

• For specific advice on how to use this medicine, please consult your doctor.

Gemcal Plus Capsule is taken orally.

Gemcal Plus Capsule contains several active components:

• Calcitriol/Cholecalciferol (0.25 MCG): This form of Vitamin D3 boosts calcium absorption in your gut and maintains adequate serum calcium and phosphate levels to facilitate normal bone mineralisation.

• Elemental Boron (1.5 MG): Boron extends the half-life of vitamin D and Oestrogen, both vital for maintaining healthy bones. It also improves the absorption and metabolism of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D.

• Elemental Calcium (250 MG): As the main mineral found in bones, calcium is vital for maintaining bone strength and density.

• Elemental Magnesium (50 MG): Magnesium helps convert vitamin D into its active form which enhances calcium absorption. Additionally, it plays a key role in structural development of bone.

• Elemental Zinc (7.5 MG): Zinc acts as a cofactor for many enzymes involved in bone metabolism. It stimulates bone formation and mineralisation, while inhibiting bone resorption.

• Methylcobalamin (750 MCG): Also known as Vitamin B12, it is essential for osteoblast function and bone formation.

• Vitamin K2-7 (45 MCG): Vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin, a protein involved in bone mineralisation. It also reduces calcium excretion, directing calcium towards bones instead of soft tissues.

• Store Gemcal Plus Capsule in a cool, dry place where the temperature is below 25°C.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Avoid exposure to extreme heat or freezing temperatures.

• Always keep the bottle tightly sealed.

• Ensure Gemcal Plus Capsule is kept out of reach of children.

• Include calcium-rich foods in your diet. These could be dairy products like milk and cheese, or soy-based foods if you're vegan. This will support the calcium provided by Gemcal Plus Capsule in building and maintaining strong bones.

• Regular exercise, especially weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, or lifting weights, can help increase bone density and support overall bone health. This works well with the bone-enhancing benefits of Gemcal Plus Capsule.
