Medicinal Benefits

Osteokit is used to treat osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). Osteokit consists of Calcium, Zinc, Calcitriol (Vitamin D3), and Ibandronic acid. Calcium and Zinc are minerals that provide essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency. It raises Vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. This helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine. Ibandronic acid belongs to the class of bisphosphonates. It reverses bone loss and increases bone mass. It works by inhibiting the action of osteoclasts (a bone cell that breaks down bone tissue), thus helping in the reduction of fractures.

Uses of Osteokit
