Osteomalacia

Supplements studied for osteomalacia.

Overview

Vitamin D (DEX Score 40; low effect size, evidence, and trust) has high-strength evidence for osteomalacia. Oral vitamin D treats this condition, with calcifediol effective for bone problems linked to liver disease or certain seizure medicines, and vitamin D2 effective for osteomalacia due to poor absorption, Fanconi syndrome, or steroid use.

This is among the clearest supplement indications in the database, with high ratings across effect size, evidence, and trust from two studies. Vitamin D directly addresses the deficiency underlying osteomalacia.
