Sachet contains Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) 60000IU. It is used to treat and prevent Vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency occurs when lifestyle or diet does not provide enough Vitamin D or when your body requires more of it. It may also be given for certain bone conditions such as osteoporosis (thinning of bone) along with other medicines. Vitamin D is vital for bone health and helps the body in the absorption of calcium.

Product Description:

Cholecalciferol is vitamin D3, the form the skin makes from 7-dehydrocholesterol under ultraviolet B light. It is not really a vitamin but a prohormone: the liver converts it to calcidiol, the kidney converts that to calcitriol, and calcitriol acts on receptors throughout the body, principally to increase calcium absorption from the gut and maintain bone mineralisation. Deficiency is widespread wherever sun exposure is limited by latitude, clothing, indoor work or skin pigmentation.

The 60000 IU sachet is a high-dose intermittent preparation. This is the point that most needs stating: it is designed to be taken weekly or monthly on a defined schedule, not daily. Taken daily it produces hypercalcaemia, with nausea, confusion, kidney stones and renal impairment. Given correctly it is an efficient way to correct established deficiency, and adherence is better than with daily dosing. Vitamin D is fat-soluble and is absorbed better with food.

Sourcing notes. Registered as a medicine in some markets and a food supplement in others, and the classification changes both the registration route and whether this dose is even permitted — many supplement frameworks cap vitamin D far below 60000 IU. Confirm per destination. The dosing interval must be unambiguous on the pack. Protect from light and heat.
