Calcichew D3 Forte - 100 Chewable Tablets

Calcichew D3 Forte 100 Chewable Tablets are a combination calcium and vitamin D3 supplement designed to help treat and prevent deficiency when dietary intake is insufficient or requirements are increased. Each lemon-flavoured chewable tablet delivers 1250 mg calcium carbonate (equivalent to 500 mg elemental calcium) and 400 IU (10 µg) colecalciferol (vitamin D3), nutrients essential for bone formation and maintenance, calcium absorption and normal muscle function.

This formulation is widely recommended for adults and elderly individuals with dietary gaps, limited sun exposure, post-menopausal women, pregnant women (where advised), and those at risk of osteoporosis. It provides a convenient chewable format for daily supplementation and helps support overall skeletal health as part of a balanced lifestyle.
