Overview
Citracal makes this caplet to release its calcium slowly over time, with vitamin D3 and magnesium added to the formula. The label says to take it once daily, and it has no flavor.
A once-daily caplet is simpler to remember than several tablets through the day, and the added magnesium and vitamin D round out the formula. The limitation is size, since a large caplet is harder to swallow, and there is no chewable version here.
Who it's for
A person who prefers to take a bone supplement once and be done for the day. Those who need to split doses or avoid large pills would be better with smaller tablets or chews.
Pros and cons
- Calcium, vitamin D and magnesium together
- Take once daily
- Slow release formula
- Large caplet, harder to swallow
- Calcium per caplet not clear
- Moderate count per bottle
Performance notes
A slow release caplet lets calcium dissolve over a longer stretch instead of all at once, which matters because the body takes in calcium in limited amounts. Taking it with food is the common way to use calcium products, and the caplet works best swallowed whole.
