Calcium & Vitamin D3- Patients with mild to moderate renal failure or mild hypercalciuria should be periodically checked for plasma calcium levels and urinary calcium excretion.

Ibandronic Acid: Products containing calcium and other multivalent cations (such as aluminium, magnesium, iron) are likely to interfere with absorption of ibandronic acid. Because aspirin, NSAIDs and bisphosphonates are all associated with gastrointestinal irritation, caution should be exercised in the concomitant use of aspirin or NSAIDs with ibandronic acid.Calcium (Algae Source) and Vitamin D3: This combination has possible interaction with digoxin, antacids containing calcium, aluminium or magnesium, other calcium supplements and calcitriol. Oral calcium can reduce the absorption of tetracycline, doxycycline, aminocycline or oxytetracycline. Thiazide diuretics reduce the renal excretion of calcium. Phenytoin, barbiturates, glucocorticoids may induce metabolism of vitamin D.Drug interaction with food and others: Concomitant ingestion of certain foods like spinach, cereals, milk and its derivatives may reduce the intestinal uptake of calcium. Calcium supplements, antacids and some oral medications may interfere with absorption of ibandronate.Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use
