Question
Can rickets be cured?
Answer
The key to treating rickets is to supplement vitamin D, rather than calcium alone (of course, calcium supplementation is essential as well). It’s important to note that rickets can range in severity, and different treatment approaches should be tailored to the degree of the condition. Mild cases of rickets can be treated with Eicosin, while moderate to severe cases may require high-dose vitamin D3 therapy. Currently, the preferred vitamin D3 for the prevention and treatment of moderate to severe rickets is Yingkangli (Cholecalciferol Lactate).
