About Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s
Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s belongs to the class of ‘dietary supplements’, primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women for building and keeping their bones strong.
Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s consists of three medicines, namely: Calcitriol (Vitamin D3), Vitamin K2, and Magnesium. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of Vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid glands’ decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. It raises the Vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. This helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine. Vitamin K2 helps to maintain bone density by promoting calcium transport from the bloodstream into the bone. It also metabolizes calcium and activated the calcium-binding action of two proteins that help in making and maintaining bones. Magnesium plays an important role in converting vitamin D into its active form that helps in calcium absorption.
Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s is available in the form of an oral tablet, capsule, chewable tablet, extended-release tablet, and liquid formulations. Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. In some cases, Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s can cause side effects like constipation or stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, mood changes, weakness, tiredness, fast or pounding heartbeat, bone/muscle pain, and headache. Most of these side effects of Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
If you are known to be allergic to Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s. Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s may pass into the breast milk, hence breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting Ostium K2 Tablet 15’s.
