Abstract

The article analyses scientific data concerning the role of calcium and vitamin D in increasing mineral density of the bone tissue and reducing the risk of fractures. It is shown that high doses of vitamin D and calcium can be recommended to all women both for treatment and reduction of the risk of osteoporotic fractures. The combination of 1,000–1,200 mg of calcium and at least 800 IU of vitamin D a day is considered to be effective. Prospects for studying bone regeneration after an osteoporotic fracture under combined influence of calcium and vitamin D with other antiresorptive drugs are indicated.
