How Depidra Tablet SR works
Depidra Tablet SR is a combination of three medicines : Dehydroepiandrosterone (Micronized), Folic Acid, and Vitamin D3. Dehydroepiandrosterone (Micronized) is a hormonal medication. It gets converted into sex hormones in the body which are essential for the production and development of healthy eggs. Thus, it helps treat female infertility. Folic Acid is a form of vitamin B. It plays a vital role in the formation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. It is also essential in pregnancy due to its role in the development of the unborn baby's brain and spinal cord. Vitamin D3 is a form of vitamin D. It raises vitamin D levels in your blood. This in turn raises calcium levels in your blood by helping you absorb more calcium from food.
