Introduction About CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE
CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE is a combination of Calcitriol, Calcium Carbonate, and Menaquinone, which belongs to the group of medicines called Nutritional Supplements. It is used to manage osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis is a condition that causes the thinning and weakening of bones because of the excessive absorption of calcium from the bones. It is characterized by symptoms such as bleeding gums, weak grip strength, brittle fingernails, loss of height, frequent fractures, and neck and back pain.
CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE is not recommended for use if you are allergic to calcitriol or calcium. It is also not recommended for use if you have kidney stones, hypercalcaemia (high blood calcium levels), or evidence of vitamin D toxicity.
CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE should be used with caution in cases of hepatic insufficiency, nephrotic diseases (a kidney disease causing excess protein in your urine), chronic renal failure, and a high tendency to get kidney stones. CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE should also be used with caution in patients undergoing dialysis.
CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE should be used with caution by pregnant women only if necessary. CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE is not recommended to be used by breastfeeding women.

How CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE Works
CETJOINT K2 7 CAPSULE helps in managing bone weakening, where calcitriol plays a very important role in aiding the absorption of calcium by acting on certain gut cells to increase the production of calcium transport proteins, whereas calcium carbonate acts by directly increasing the calcium stores in the body.
Vitamin K activates the calcium-binding actions of two proteins (the matrix GLA protein and osteocalcin), which helps in enhancing calcium absorption in the body, thereby increasing bone mass and strength.
