Overview

Citracal Petites use calcium citrate rather than calcium carbonate, packed into a smaller caplet alongside vitamin D3, and sold in a large 375-count bottle for a long daily routine.

Calcium citrate is generally easier to take without food than calcium carbonate, part of why Citracal built its line around this form. The Petites naming and caplet size point to a smaller pill than typical calcium tablets. The listing is labeled for ages 12 and up.

  • Calcium citrate combined with vitamin D3
  • Smaller Petites caplet format
  • 375 caplets per bottle
  • Gluten free, labeled for ages 12 and up

Who it's for

People who have found calcium carbonate hard on digestion or inconvenient to take with meals, and who want a smaller caplet in a large-count bottle. Not the choice for someone directed to use calcium carbonate specifically, or for a child under 12.
