Calcium Supplements (with medications)
Calcium supplements used with medications are prescribed to correct or prevent low calcium levels and to support bone health when dietary intake is insufficient. They provide elemental calcium needed for bone mineralization, muscle contraction, and nerve signaling, but they can also interact with some medicines by reducing their absorption.
