CITRACAL Petites, Highly Soluble, Easily Digested, 400 mg Calcium Citrate with 500 IU Vitamin D3, Bone Health Supplement for Adults, Relatively Small Easy-to-Swallow Caplets, 375 Count

I picked up the Citracal Petites + D3 because I wanted a calcium supplement that was easier on the stomach and didn’t require taking it with food, and this one checks all the boxes. The tablets are definitely smaller and easier to swallow compared to regular calcium pills, which is a huge plus for me. Since it’s calcium citrate, it absorbs well and doesn’t cause the same stomach discomfort or heaviness that some calcium carbonate supplements can. I also like that it includes vitamin D3, which helps with better absorption and makes it more of a complete daily supplement. The bottle comes with a big count, so it’s a great value for how long it lasts. Overall, it’s gentle, convenient, and feels like a reliable option for daily calcium support. I’ll continue using it and update if anything changes, but so far I’m very satisfied.

Very happy with Amazon

These were a lot smaller, easy to swallow, thank you

Been taking these "petite" caplets for almost 3 years. They were recommended to me by my physician as an alternative to the regular size (horse pills) that calcium pills usually are. They are still big for me but I can get them down without any issues, usually. They have been effective as my calcium levels have increased to an acceptable level. There is no aftertaste and I'm happy with the ingredients.

Very happy to get these calcium citrate pills—they are coated to go down fairly easily and do not include zinc (like many OTHERS do, which causes nausea on an empty stomach) However, they are not “petite” as advertised. I took a photo of this pill next to two other brands of calcium pills I have tried unsuccessfully recently to show you the size of these “petite” pills in comparison. They are not that much smaller. I also took a photo with two of these pills in my hand so that you can compare it to the seller’s similar photo of two pills in a model’s hand, which makes them appear much smaller—perhaps my hands are smaller than the model’s hands. And since they contain only 400mg per TWO pill serving, I have to take four a day—two in the morning and two more at night. It means the bottle of 375 pills lasts me slightly more than only 90 days. But still, it’s very nice to have these since they are citrate with no magnesium. I don’t like that they contain sodium and various other ingredients in addition to the calcium citrate. I would have rated these a “5” if they were truly petite, didn’t contain other ingredients like sodium and stuff I cannot pronounce, and it would sure be nice if they were EACH 600mg instead of only 200mg.
