What is the Mode of Action of Methylcobalamin in Gemcal Plus ?
- A.
Puts calcium in bone & away from blood vessels
- B.
Increase in BMD
- C.
Increases homocysteine level & reduces risk of fracture & CVD
- D.
Reduces homocysteine level & reduces risk of fracture & CVD
Correct Answer
D. Reduces homocysteine level & reduces risk of fracture & CVDExplanation
Methylcobalamin reduces homocysteine levels, which in turn reduces the risk of fracture and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Elevated levels of homocysteine have been associated with an increased risk of these conditions. By lowering homocysteine levels, methylcobalamin helps to prevent fractures and reduce the risk of CVD.Rate this question:

As per the VA-vitamin K2-7 & Cacitriol in Gemcal Plus is responsible for ?
- A.
Puts calcium in bone & away from blood vessels
- B.
increase in BMD
- C.
increases homocysteine level & reduces risk of fracture & CVD
- D.
Reduces homocysteine level & reduces risk of fracture & CVD
Correct Answer
A. Puts calcium in bone & away from blood vesselsExplanation
The VA-vitamin K2-7 & Cacitriol in Gemcal Plus is responsible for putting calcium in the bone and away from blood vessels. This helps to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and reduces the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Additionally, it also reduces homocysteine levels, further contributing to the prevention of fractures and CVD.Rate this question:

As per the VA of Gemcal DS, Vit.K2-7 carboxylates Osteocalcin that........?
- A.
Prevents calcification in blood vessels
- B.
Puts Calcium into blood
- C.
Promotes calcification in blood vessels
- D.
Puts calcium into bones
Correct Answer
D. Puts calcium into bonesExplanation
The correct answer is "Puts calcium into bones." Vitamin K2-7 carboxylates osteocalcin, which is a protein involved in bone metabolism. This process activates osteocalcin, allowing it to bind to calcium and transport it into the bones, promoting bone mineralization and strengthening.Rate this question:

What is mode of action of Calcitriol ?
- A.
Strengthens the bone
- B.
Increases calcium absorption from Intestine
- C.
Reduces calcium absorption from Intestine
- D.
Prevents calcification in blood vessels
Correct Answer
B. Increases calcium absorption from IntestineExplanation
Calcitriol is the active form of vitamin D, and its mode of action involves increasing the absorption of calcium from the intestine. This is important for maintaining adequate levels of calcium in the body, which is essential for various physiological processes, including bone health. By increasing calcium absorption, calcitriol helps to ensure that sufficient amounts of calcium are available for bone formation and other functions in the body.Rate this question:

As per the VA in GemcalDS, Vit.K2-7 carboxylates MATRIX GLA PROTEIN that.......?
- A.
Puts Calcium into blood
- B.
Prevents calcification in blood vessels
- C.
Promotes calcification in blood vessels
- D.
Puts calcium into bones
Correct Answer
B. Prevents calcification in blood vesselsExplanation
Vitamin K2-7 carboxylates MATRIX GLA PROTEIN, which helps to prevent calcification in blood vessels. Calcification refers to the accumulation of calcium deposits in the blood vessels, which can lead to the hardening and narrowing of the arteries. By carboxylating MATRIX GLA PROTEIN, Vitamin K2-7 helps to inhibit the calcification process and maintain the health and flexibility of blood vessels.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Osteoporosis associated with Hypertension & DiabetesExplanation
Gemcal Plus is indicated for the treatment of osteoporosis associated with hypertension and diabetes. This means that it is specifically recommended for individuals who have osteoporosis and also have hypertension and diabetes as coexisting conditions. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones, and individuals with hypertension and diabetes are at an increased risk of developing osteoporosis. Gemcal Plus helps to strengthen the bones and reduce the risk of fractures in individuals with this specific combination of conditions.Rate this question:

- C.
In Senile Osteopenia & Osteoporotic Fractures
- D.
In Osteoporosis & Osteoporotic Fractures
Correct Answer
B. In Senile Osteoporosis & Osteoporotic FracturesExplanation
Gemcal DS is indicated for the treatment of senile osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures. Senile osteoporosis refers to the loss of bone density and strength that occurs with age, particularly in postmenopausal women. Osteoporotic fractures are fractures that occur due to weakened and brittle bones. Gemcal DS is likely to be prescribed in these conditions to help improve bone density and reduce the risk of fractures.Rate this question:
