Uses of Dow D Injection

Dow D Injection is used to prevent and treat vitamin D deficiency, which is very common in Pakistan. It is used for rickets in children, softening of the bones (osteomalacia) in adults, and alongside calcium in osteoporosis. High-strength injections and capsules are given at intervals for proven deficiency.

How Dow D Injection works

Vitamin D3 helps the gut absorb calcium and phosphate, which the body needs to build and maintain strong bones and teeth, and supports muscle function.

Possible side effects

At the right dose, Dow D Injection rarely causes side effects. Taking too much can cause:

• Nausea or vomiting
• Loss of appetite
• Constipation
• Excessive thirst or urination

Too much vitamin D raises calcium levels. See a doctor if you have confusion, severe tiredness, vomiting or kidney pain.

Precautions and warnings

• High-strength doses (such as 50,000 or 200,000 IU) should be used only on a doctor’s advice, ideally after a blood test.
• Do not combine several vitamin D products without advice.
• Tell your doctor if you have kidney stones, high calcium, sarcoidosis or kidney disease.
• Ask your doctor about the right dose in pregnancy.
