How to take it
Take one tablet a day, or as the label or your doctor advises, with water. Calcium citrate is absorbed well with or without food. Do not exceed the label dose: the NHS advises keeping calcium from supplements to 1,500 mg a day or less and magnesium from supplements to 400 mg a day or less, and the zinc and vitamin D in this tablet add to what you get from other products. Keep it 1–2 hours apart from other medicines and at least 4 hours from thyroid tablets. Ask your doctor before starting if you have kidney disease or kidney stones.
