Benefits of Gen-D3 Injection

In Treatment of Vitamin D deficiency

Normally your body creates vitamin D from sunlight, but you will be prescribed this medicine as a supplement if you do not have enough. It is important to keep taking it regularly to get the benefits. You may not notice it working but keep taking it in order to protect your bones. Additionally, it can boost your immunity and increase the body's resistance against various infections.

In Treatment of Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a common condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It often occurs in women after menopause. Vitamin D is important for the absorption of calcium and helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in your body. If you do not have enough calcium it can damage your bones. It will help to keep your bones strong and healthy and reduce the risk of them becoming weak and more likely to break.

You can help improve the strength of your bones by taking regular exercise (especially weight-bearing exercise), eating healthy foods containing calcium and vitamin D, and reducing your consumption of alcohol and tobacco.
