Kolecalziferol plays a significant role in the absorption of calcium and phosphate in the gut, transport of mineral salts and during the calcification of bones, also regulates the excretion of calcium and phosphate in the kidneys.

The presence in the blood of calcium ions in physiological concentrations maintains muscle tone skeletal muscles, myocardial function, promotes nerve stimulation, regulates the process of blood clotting.
