How Bonepex-D Tablet works
Bonepex-D Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Alendronic Acid and Vitamin D3 which treat osteoporosis. Alendronic Acid is a bisphosphonate. It works by suppressing the activity of osteoclasts, cells that cause destruction of bone. This strengthens the bone and minimizes the risk of fractures. Vitamin D3 helps protect your bones, both by increasing calcium absorption and by supporting muscles needed to avoid falls.

Vit D is processed by your body by sunlight only which helps in calcium binding there is no other way to get vit D absorbed in human body.
I am away from my hometown and currently at Pune. My Vit D deficiency test was done last year and it is time now to get it done again. When contacted Path Lab I was asked whether Vit D test or Vit D3 test and I am unable to reply. Please let me know which one I should go for.
