Introduction:
Milical O D3 tablet is used to prevent or treat low blood calcium levels, treats vitamin D and calcium deficiencies and treat conditions caused low calcium levels such as bone loss (osteoporosis), weak bones (osteomalacia/rickets).
Calcium is essential for functioning of nerve, muscles, cells and bone strength. If there is calcium deficiency in the blood the body will take calcium from bones, thereby weakening bones.
