Citracal Calcium Supplement +D3, Petites, 200 Coated Caplets
UPC: 016500535034
Citracal Petites is a calcium supplement designed to support bone health, featuring a smaller caplet size intended for easier swallowing compared to other Citracal formulations. Each serving of two caplets provides 400 mg of calcium in the form of calcium citrate, which is noted for its gentle absorption on the digestive system and can be taken with or without food, along with 12.5 mcg (500 IU) of vitamin D3 to aid calcium absorption.
This product is positioned as the #1 doctor and pharmacist recommended calcium brand, based on a Pharmacy Times Survey. The manufacturer emphasizes that the caplets are smaller than Citracal Maximum Plus, though some user reviews question the 'petite' labeling. It is formulated for adults and children ages 12 and older, with a recommended dosage of two caplets twice daily. Also available in other variants like Maximum Plus, Calcium Gummies, and Slow Release 1200.
