Uses of Calembic Tablet

Osteoporosis

Benefits of Calembic Tablet

Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common condition that causes bones to become fragile and brittle so that they break (fracture) more easily. Fractures may be painful and restrict a person’s ability to carry out their normal daily tasks. Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet reduces the risk of a fracture occurring in osteoporosis. Calcium helps in the growth and development of bones as well as maintain strong bones. Since osteoporosis doesn’t usually have any symptoms such as pain (until a fracture occurs) you might not ‘feel’ any immediate benefit from your treatment with Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet. Keep taking it untill your doctor asks you to stop. Along with medicines, eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D like dairy products, green leafy vegetables etc.

Side effects of Calembic Tablet

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How Calembic Tablet works

Calembic 150 mg/225 mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Ibandronic Acid and Calcium which treat osteoporosis. Ibandronic 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. Calcium is a mineral which helps prevent the loss of bone mass.
