Calcium-Folic Acid Plus D Chewable Wafers supplementation may be beneficial to individuals who have an insufficient dietary intake of the nutrients contained therein. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation may be useful in both preventing and treating osteoporosis.

If dietary intake of calcium is inadequate, patients currently taking bisphosphonates for treatment of osteoporosis should be instructed to take calcium and vitamin D daily (Calcium-Folic Acid Plus D Chewable Wafers).
