UpdatedMy mom is suffering from hip bone pain & joint pain. I want to know that this medicine is right for my mom's treatment & if there are any side effects?

My mother had her left hip replaced in 2012. Along with a few medicines (for few days)...she was advised "to continue" Osteokit. Since then she has not missed a single dose of it in the last 5 years. We take a calcium test every year...and hers is approx. 8.9/9.0. She is 82 yrs old....active and healthy. She is doing fine and does not have any complaints (including digestion problems). I read that the primary side effect of continuing Osteokit could be kidney stones and am worried. Kindly advise if we may discontinue treatment? Her weight is 70 kgs; no ailments; BP 90/140; glucose/pp/98.
