Description

Compound:

Each 28 drops (1 ml) contains:

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) 2800 IU

Auxiliary components:

Polysorbitol 20, vitamin E, glycerin, disodium edetate, purified water.

Properties:

It enhances the absorption of calcium in the intestines and the reabsorption of phosphorus in the renal tubules, normalizes the formation of the skeleton and teeth in children, and helps to preserve the structure of bones. It increases the permeability of cellular and mitochondrial membranes of the intestinal epithelium, facilitating the transmembrane transport of calcium cations and other divalent cations, activates the secondary absorption of phosphates, increases the uptake of these ions by bone tissue, and enhances the process of ossification.

Indications:

• Hypo- and avitaminosis of vitamin D3 (prevention and treatment), a state of increased need for vitamin D: rickets, spasmophilia, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, nephrogenic osteopathy;
• Hypoparathyroidism (postoperative, idiopathic, tetany), pseudohypoparathyroidism.

Dosage and administration:

Dose for term infants:

4 drops per day (first year of life), starting from 2-5 weeks after birth.

Dose for premature infants:

4-8 drops per day (in the first year of life).

For medicinal purposes with rickets 50 drops per day for 3 weeks.

Contraindications:

• Hypersensitivity to vitamin D3, acute renal failure.
• hypercalcemia;
• hypervitaminosis D3;
• renal osteodystrophy – with hyperphosphatemia;
• calcium nephrourolithiasis;

Precautionary measures:

With prophylactic use, it is necessary to keep in mind the possibility of overdose, especially in children (more than 400,000-600,000 IU / year should not be prescribed). Prolonged use in high doses leads to chronic hypervitaminosis D3.

It should be borne in mind that the sensitivity to vitamin D3 in different patients is individual and in some patients even taking therapeutic doses can cause hypervitaminosis phenomena.

Side effects:

Allergic reactions, hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, decreased appetite, polyuria, constipation, flatulence, nausea, abdominal pain, headache, myalgia, arthralgia, increased blood pressure, arrhythmia, impaired renal function, exacerbation of the tuberculosis process in the lungs.

Storage method:

In a dry, dark, cool place at a temperature not exceeding 30 degrees.
