FAQs

CALGYM TABLET is a dietary supplement that treats nutritional deficiencies. It consists of Calcium citrate, Elemental Magnesium, Vitamin D3, and Elemental Zinc. It works by replenishing low calcium, magnesium, and zinc levels, maintaining bone density, and promoting calcium transport from the bloodstream into the bone.

CALGYM TABLET is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use CALGYM TABLET if you have hypercalcaemia since it causes an overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.

Zinc may decrease the absorption of antibiotics, thereby reducing their effectiveness. It is advised to maintain at least an hour gap between CALGYM TABLET and antibiotics.

Antacids may increase the absorption of Calcium from CALGYM TABLET. Hence, taking CALGYM TABLET two hours before or four hours after taking antacids is advised.

CALGYM TABLET consists of Calcium citrate, Elemental Magnesium, Elemental Zinc, and Vitamin D3. Calcium citrate is a mineral used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients required for bone formation and maintenance.

In some cases, it may cause common side effects like constipation, nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.
