Product introduction
MGD3 Tablet is an over-the-counter nutritional supplement combining a bioavailable magnesium glycine complex with vitamin D3, marketed by Pharmed Ltd. On 1mg, MGD3 is listed as part of a combo pack alongside Antoxid HC Capsule, an antioxidant-and-mineral formulation from Dr Reddy's Laboratories containing beta-carotene, zinc, selenium, manganese, and copper; the two are commonly sold together, though this listing describes the MGD3 tablet on its own. Each tablet is intended to support normal bone, muscle, nerve, and heart function through its magnesium and vitamin D3 content. It is a supplement rather than a treatment for a specific disease and is typically taken as advised by a physician.
