1. What is DINCREL and what is it used for

DINCREL is used for the prevention and treatment of calcium and vitamin D deficiency in the elderly and
as an additional treatment in the care of osteoporosis in patients at risk of calcium and vitamin
D deficiency, when a dietary supplement with doses of calcium equal to 600 mg/day and of vitamin
D equal to 1000 I.U./day is deemed appropriate.
DINCREL contains calcium and vitamin D, both of which are important components for bone formation. Vitamin D regulates the absorption and metabolism of calcium as well as the deposition of calcium
in bone tissue.
Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have further questions and always follow their instructions.
Consult your doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel worse after a few days.
