About Calimac Tablet
Calimac Tablet provides Calcium Carbonate 1250 mg (equivalent to elemental calcium 500 mg) — meeting half the daily calcium RDA in a single tablet. The high elemental calcium content makes Calimac particularly suitable for patients requiring substantial calcium supplementation, including post-menopausal women, those on long-term corticosteroids, and patients with CKD-related bone disease.
Calcium Carbonate is also widely used in chronic kidney disease as a phosphate binder, where its calcium content provides dual benefit. This positions Calimac as a workhorse calcium supplement for general practice, gynaecology, orthopaedics and nephrology.
Calimac is manufactured by Trumac Healthcare under WHO-GMP conditions. Available for monopoly-based PCD pharma franchise and third-party manufacturing — a flagship cross-specialty calcium SKU.
Indications
- Osteoporosis and bone-density maintenance
- Post-menopausal calcium supplementation
- Long-term corticosteroid use (osteoporosis prophylaxis)
- Chronic kidney disease (phosphate binder)
- Pregnancy and lactation
- Hypocalcaemia
Mechanism of Action
Calcium Carbonate releases calcium ions in the acidic gastric environment. Absorption occurs via active vitamin D-dependent transport and passive paracellular diffusion in the small intestine. In CKD, dietary calcium carbonate also binds intestinal phosphate, reducing phosphate absorption and supporting CKD-MBD management.
Dosage & Administration
Adults: 1 tablet once or twice daily after meals (with food for best absorption). In CKD as phosphate binder: 1 tablet with each meal as directed by nephrologist.
Side Effects
Constipation, bloating, flatulence. Possible hypercalcaemia with high-dose use — monitor serum calcium. Rare: milk-alkali syndrome with very high doses + alkalinising agents.
Contraindications & Precautions
Hypersensitivity. Hypercalcaemia. Hyperparathyroidism. Severe renal impairment without monitoring. Concurrent thiazide diuretics (potentiation of hypercalcaemia).
Storage
Store below 30 °C in a dry place, protected from light and moisture.
