✅ Description:

Ostimet 500mg Tablet is indicated for the prevention or treatment of low blood calcium levels in individuals who do not obtain sufficient calcium from their diets. It is commonly used to address conditions arising from low calcium levels, including:

  1. Osteoporosis: A condition characterized by bone loss, leading to weakened bones.
  2. Osteomalacia/Rickets: Conditions that result in weak bones, often due to a deficiency of vitamin D and calcium.
  3. Hypoparathyroidism: Decreased activity of the parathyroid gland, which can affect calcium regulation in the body.
  4. Latent Tetany: A certain muscle disease associated with low calcium levels.

Additionally, Ostimet 500mg Tablet may be prescribed to ensure adequate calcium intake in specific populations:

  • Pregnant Women: To support the increased calcium needs during pregnancy.
  • Nursing Women: To provide sufficient calcium for breastfeeding.
  • Postmenopausal Women: To maintain bone health during the postmenopausal period.
  • People on Certain Medications: Such as phenytoin, phenobarbital, or prednisone, which may interfere with calcium absorption.

Calcium is a crucial element for various bodily functions, including the normal functioning of nerves, cells, muscles, and bones. In cases where there is insufficient calcium in the blood, the body may extract calcium from the bones, leading to bone weakening. Adequate calcium levels are essential for the construction and maintenance of strong bones.
