Arachitol 6L Injection
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Arachitol 6L Injection helps your body absorb calcium, which is important for maintaining strong bones. This medicine is used if your diet does not provide enough vitamin D and may be used to treat certain bone conditions such as thinning of the bones (osteoporosis).
Arachitol 6L Injection is given under the supervision of a healthcare professional and should not be self-administered. You should take it regularly to get the most benefit from it. If you are using it to treat osteoporosis, you will also be prescribed other medicines. This medicine may be only part of a complete treatment program that includes changing your diet and taking calcium and vitamin supplements. Learn the foods you should eat to get enough calcium and vitamin D.
If taken in the correct dose and duration, it is well tolerated and does not usually cause side effects. However, overdosage of Arachitol 6L Injection can cause symptoms such as weakness, muscle pain, or a metallic taste in your mouth. Let your doctor know if you experience any side effects or other symptoms after the injection. They may be able to suggest ways to reduce or treat the side effects.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have high calcium levels in your blood or if you have any preexisting medical conditions. Some other medicines can decrease the absorption of vitamin D3, so let your doctor know all other medicines you are taking to make sure you are safe. While using Arachitol 6L Injection, you may need extra blood tests and possibly X-rays.

Benefits of Arachitol Injection
In Treatment of Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It often occurs in women after menopause. Vitamin D is important for calcium absorption and helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in your body. If you do not have enough calcium, it can damage your bones. Vitamin D will help keep your bones strong and healthy and reduce the risk of them becoming weak and more likely to break.
Regular exercise (especially weight-bearing exercise), healthy foods containing calcium and vitamin D, and reducing alcohol and tobacco consumption can help improve bone strength.

It is important to keep taking it regularly to get the benefits. You may not notice it working, but keep taking it to protect your bones. Additionally, it can boost your immunity and increase the body's resistance against various infections.
