Hi,

Shelcal HD 12 tablet contains elemental calcium, vitamin D3 and vitamin B12 which is used in the treatment of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteomalacia, calcium deficiency during growth, lactation, pregnancy, hyperparathyroidism, refractory rickets, renal osteodystrophy, chronic renal disease, controlling hypocalcemia and many more. It is also used for formation of red blood cells, DNA synthesis and proper function of nerve cells. Vitamin D3 helps in absorption of calcium in the body that is one of the active ingredients of Shelcal HD 12 tablet.

Absolute Woman capsule contains evening primrose oil, gingko biloba, green tea extract, L- carnitine, antioxidants, vitamins, micronutrients etc., is used for women with nutritional deficiencies, stress and fatigue, menstrual problems, menopausal complications, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, recurrent infections, bone health, maintaining healthy skin and hair, decreasing anxiety, maintaining memory and many more.

You should not stop taking these medications abruptly without informing your prescribing doctor. Before stopping these medications, consult your doctor first and ask your doctor if you have any queries.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
