What is it used for?
Cholecalciferol is a form of vitamin D used to prevent or treat vitamin D deficiency. It supports calcium absorption and helps maintain strong bones and muscles.
How does it work?
It increases the body’s vitamin D levels, helping the intestines absorb calcium and phosphate needed for healthy bones and muscles.
How to take/use it
Use only as directed by a doctor or as stated on the product label. Do not take extra doses or use it for longer than recommended. Avoid taking other vitamin D or calcium supplements unless advised by a healthcare professional.
Common side effects
Usually well tolerated when used as directed. Excessive vitamin D intake may cause nausea, vomiting, constipation, stomach discomfort, unusual thirst, frequent urination or weakness.
Precautions
Tell a doctor before use if there is kidney disease, kidney stones, high calcium levels, or a condition that increases calcium levels. Seek medical advice if symptoms of excessive calcium occur. Keep out of reach of children.
