Manufactured to the highest quality standards, Vitamin D3 Injection offers essential support for maintaining calcium balance, bone health, and overall well-being.

Indications and Usage: Vitamin D3 Injection is indicated for the treatment and prevention of vitamin D deficiency, including cases where oral supplementation is not feasible or desirable. It is used to replenish depleted vitamin D levels and prevent or alleviate symptoms associated with deficiency states, such as osteomalacia, rickets, and hypocalcemia.

Dosage and Administration: The dosage of Vitamin D3 Injection varies depending on the severity of vitamin D deficiency and the patient's response to therapy. It is typically administered via intramuscular or subcutaneous injection under the supervision of a healthcare professional. The recommended dosage regimen may include loading doses followed by maintenance doses, tailored to the individual patient's needs.

Dosage Forms and Strengths: Vitamin D3 Injection is available as a sterile solution in vials containing specific concentrations of cholecalciferol formulated for parenteral administration. Each vial is carefully manufactured to ensure accurate dosing and optimal therapeutic outcomes.

Contraindications: This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to cholecalciferol or any of the excipients. It should not be used in patients with hypercalcemia, vitamin D toxicity, or primary hyperparathyroidism. Additionally, it is contraindicated in patients with malabsorption syndromes or granulomatous diseases, as these conditions may predispose to vitamin D toxicity.

Warnings and Precautions: Healthcare providers should exercise caution when administering Vitamin D3 Injection to patients with renal impairment or hyperparathyroidism, as high doses of vitamin D may exacerbate these conditions. Patients should be monitored regularly for signs of hypercalcemia, including fatigue, weakness, nausea, and constipation. Long-term use of vitamin D supplements may increase the risk of renal calculi and cardiovascular events.
