Algeum-DX 600 mg+400 IU is indicated for:

• Treatment of osteoporosis, rickets, osteomalacia, tetany, and hypoparathyroidism.
• Supplementation during pregnancy and lactation to meet increased nutritional demands.
• Supportive therapy in conditions such as kidney disease and pancreatitis.
• Use during treatment with anticonvulsant (anti-seizure) medications.
• Prevention and management of calcium and vitamin D3 deficiency.

Calcium (derived from algae) is an essential mineral required for maintaining strong bones and overall structural integrity of the body. It plays a crucial role in bone formation and is effective in the prevention and management of osteoporosis and related fractures. Vitamin D3 enhances intestinal absorption of calcium and supports bone mineralization. It also promotes new bone formation. Clinical studies indicate that the combination of calcium and vitamin D3 has a synergistic effect, improving bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.

Usual adult dose: 1 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet at night. Tablet should be taken orally.
