Fultium D3 - Key Information

What is Fultium D3?

Fultium D3 is a vitamin D supplement used to prevent and treat vitamin D deficiency in adults and children over 12 years old. It contains cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), which helps the body absorb calcium to support strong and healthy bones. Each capsule provides 800 IU (20 micrograms) of vitamin D.

How Does Fultium D3 Work?

Vitamin D is mainly obtained from sunlight exposure and certain foods like oily fish and dairy products. However, some people do not get enough sunlight due to factors such as:

  • Limited outdoor exposure (e.g., elderly individuals, housebound people)
  • Wearing clothing that covers the skin
  • A diet lacking in vitamin D

Fultium D3 helps increase vitamin D levels, which allows the body to absorb more calcium from food. This prevents bone weakening (osteomalacia) and supports bone strength. It is often combined with calcium supplements to help manage conditions like osteomalacia and osteoporosis.

Benefits of Taking Fultium D3

  • Prevents and treats vitamin D deficiency
  • Supports calcium absorption for stronger bones
  • Reduces the risk of osteomalacia and osteoporosis
  • Helps maintain overall bone and muscle health

Fultium D3 is particularly important for those who get limited sun exposure or have a higher risk of vitamin D deficiency.

It is important to note that people may have different experiences when they use Fultium D3. If someone states that their medication did not work as they had hoped, it does not mean that it will not work for you. If you believe that it is the right medication for you then the best thing to do is to consult your doctor or healthcare professional, and judge the medication based on your own experiences if they recommend it as a treatment. Before starting a medication you should always consult with your healthcare provider first to ensure that it is safe and suitable for your individual needs.
