Dear Sajish Kumar all people used to have negative thoughts including psychologists and psychiatrists. It is not an illness to eat tablets.! But need to check if you have any psychological disorder to be treated, either through psychological therapies or with medicines. But psychological interventions are possible to deal with your negative thoughts with therapies like CBT. Good that you recognise your negative thoughts which can be corrected. Bye take care

I am taking neuro 60k for vitamin deficiency once a week. Can I take shelcal500 on other days.
Yes you can take it. There is very less quantity of vitamin d3 in shell cal tablet just to supplement calcium absorption and function but not for curing vit d deficiency. If you are taking more than 2 times a day a slight modification in the dose could be done.
