How much calcium and vitamin D3 does one serving provide?

One serving of Citracal Petites equals two coated caplets, supplying 400 mg of elemental calcium plus 12.5 mcg (500 IU) of vitamin D3. These levels are intended to complement dietary intake and support normal calcium utilization.

• 400 mg calcium per serving (2 caplets)
• 12.5 mcg (500 IU) vitamin D3 per serving
• Take two caplets twice daily for the recommended regimen

Why choose calcium citrate in this formula?

Calcium citrate is chosen for its favorable absorption characteristics and its compatibility with a range of stomach pH levels. It’s often easier on the digestive system than some other calcium salts and can be taken with or without food.

• Easier absorption for many people compared with other calcium forms
• Gentler on digestion, suitable for sensitive stomachs
• Works effectively across varying gastric acidity

How do the caplets fit into a daily routine?

The caplets are designed to be taken twice daily—two caplets per serving—to help you reach your targeted daily calcium and vitamin D3 intake. Because they’re small and coated, they’re simpler to swallow and convenient for regular use.

• Adults and children 12+: 2 caplets twice a day
• Can be taken with or without food to suit your schedule
• Compact caplet size makes adherence easier for many users
