Product Introduction: CALCIQUICK -D3 60K CAP

CALCIQUICK -D3 60K CAP is a high-dose Vitamin D3 softgel capsule manufactured by Dr. Morepen. Containing 60,000 IU of Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), it is indicated for the treatment of Vitamin D deficiency, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and associated bone and muscle weakness, supporting calcium absorption and skeletal strength.

Primary Indications

• Treatment of Vitamin D3 deficiency and insufficiency.
• Supportive therapy for osteoporosis and senile bone loss.
• Management of hypocalcemia and latent tetany due to hypoparathyroidism.

Therapeutic Benefits

• High Potency: 60K IU dosage quickly restores low Vitamin D levels in the body.
• Calcium Absorption: Essential for active calcium transport in the intestinal tract.
• Skeletal & Muscle Strength: Promotes mineral deposition in bones, reducing fracture risk.

Possible Side Effects

Side effects are extremely rare when taken at recommended weekly/monthly schedules. Overdose may cause:

• Hypercalcemia (high blood calcium levels), leading to nausea, vomiting, or excessive thirst.
• Kidney stones or mild renal dysfunction in case of chronic toxicity.

How to Take CALCIQUICK -D3 60K CAP

• Take the capsule exactly as prescribed (usually once weekly for 8-12 weeks, followed by maintenance).
• Take it preferably with a fat-containing meal to enhance absorption.
• Swallow the capsule whole with water. Do not chew or split.

Mechanism of Action

CALCIQUICK -D3 60K CAP contains Cholecalciferol, which is metabolized in the liver to 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and then in the kidney to its active form, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. This active hormone binds to vitamin D receptors, upregulating the transcription of calcium binding proteins in the intestine, which increases active calcium and phosphate absorption.

Safety Warnings

• Hypercalcemia: Contraindicated in patients with active hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, or severe renal calculi.
• Pregnancy & Nursing: Consult your obstetrician; high doses are used only under strict medical supervision.

Patient Advice

• Mark your weekly calendar to ensure you take the capsule on the same day each week.
• Maintain adequate dietary intake of calcium-rich foods like milk, yogurt, and cheese.
• Get mild sunlight exposure (10-15 minutes in the morning) to support natural Vitamin D synthesis.

Fact Box

Drug Interactions

• Orlistat: May reduce the absorption of fat-soluble Vitamin D3.
• Thiazide Diuretics: Increase the risk of hypercalcemia.
• Antiepileptics (Phenytoin, Carbamazepine): Can accelerate Vitamin D metabolism, reducing its effect.

User Feedback

• Patients report significant recovery from chronic body aches, joint pain, and muscle weakness.
• Highly praised for its weekly convenience compared to daily tablets.
