Unfortunately i couldn't buy the tablet mentioned above... Instead of that i bought another tablet named "Calcium 600 plus vitamin D" which contains as below

Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic! It would be best to ask this question to your OB-GYN but in terms of stone disease it is better to drink calcium with Vitamin D. A regular intake of calcium would decrease your kidney stone occurrence.
