You can take Shelcal HD once daily after food, preferably: • after breakfast or lunch • swallow with a full glass of water • avoid taking it at the same time as iron tablets or thyroid medicines, keep at least a 2-hour gap If it has been prescribed for bone health, vitamin D deficiency, or osteoporosis prevention, it is usually continued for several weeks to months depending on the doctor’s advice.

For better calcium absorption and bone health: • Ensure adequate sunlight exposure (15–20 minutes/day) • Include calcium-rich foods like milk, curd, paneer, sesame seeds, and green vegetables • Regular walking or weight-bearing exercise helps calcium deposit into bones If you want, you can also book an online consultation to review your calcium and vitamin D levels and I can guide you on the correct duration of Shelcal HD and whether any additional supplements are needed.
