Can Mycer Qrs Tablet cause calcium deficiency and osteoporosis?
Yes, this medication can increase the risk of bone fractures due to calcium deficiency. This occurs as its action leads to reduced calcium absorption by the body.

They can advise on preventive measures like calcium or vitamin D supplementation.

Long-term use for more than three months might lead to potential side effects, including low magnesium levels (which can cause fatigue, confusion, dizziness, shakiness). Muscle twitches or irregular heartbeat may also occur. If used for over a year, the risk of bone fractures increases significantly due to decreased calcium in the blood (especially hip, wrist, and spine fractures), along with an increased risk of stomach infections, and vitamin B12 deficiency leading to anemia and fatigue.
Does Mycer Qrs Tablet cause vitamin deficiencies?
It may cause vitamin B12 and vitamin C deficiency. Oral administration requires a healthy acidic environment for optimal absorption from the stomach; however, this medication leads to decreased gastric acid secretion. Vitamin B12 supplementation may be needed while considering the potential impact of vitamin C.
