HICAL TABLET is not recommended in hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), metastatic calcification (extra deposits of calcium in the body), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food).
Alcohol
Caution
Drinking alcohol can affect calcium absorption; hence it is advised to limit the alcohol intake while using HICAL TABLET.
Pregnancy

About HICAL TABLET
HICAL TABLET belongs to the class of ‘Multi-minerals’ primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. HICAL TABLET effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone) and latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). HICAL TABLET can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium.
HICAL TABLET consists of two medicines, namely: Calcium carbonate(mineral) and Cholecalciferol(Vitamin D3). Calcium carbonate is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Cholecalciferol(Vitamin D3) is used in the absorption of calcium in the blood. Which helps in the processing of essential minerals in the body like Calcium and Phosphorus. Lack of Vitamin D3 results in bone weakening, bone pain, and skin diseases.
Take HICAL TABLET as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take HICAL TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, HICAL TABLET can cause side effects like constipation or stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, mood changes, weakness, tiredness, fast or pounding heartbeat, bone/muscle pain, and headache. Most of these side effects of HICAL TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
If you are known to be allergic to HICAL TABLET or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking HICAL TABLET. Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. HICAL TABLET may pass into the breast milk, hence breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting HICAL TABLET. Do not take HICAL TABLET if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food).
