Cal 216

Cal 216 is a branded generic combination product marketed by Sugen Pharma, primarily in the Indian market. It is formulated as a nutritional supplement to support bone health and address calcium deficiencies. The product typically contains a combination of calcium citrate, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), magnesium hydroxide, and zinc sulfate. Calcium citrate provides a bioavailable source of calcium essential for bone mineralization, while vitamin D3 acts as an agonist at the vitamin D receptor (VDR) to enhance intestinal calcium absorption. Magnesium and zinc are included as essential co-factors for bone metabolism and overall physiological support. Cal 216 is commonly indicated for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and hypocalcemia, and is frequently used as a supplement during pregnancy and lactation to meet increased mineral demands.
