This is a conventional calcium carbonate and vitamin D3 tablet that supplies a substantial routine dose, but its carbonate form is less flexible than calcium citrate and the listed vitamin D amount needs label reconciliation.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
100 / 100The labeled two-tablet routine supplies a reasonable supplemental calcium amount and a maintenance amount of vitamin D3 for general adult use.
Form
60 / 100Calcium carbonate is a conventional form that should be taken with food and has more absorption and tolerability limitations than calcium citrate, although the vitamin D3 form is standard.
Convenience
76.5 / 100The labeled routine is one tablet twice daily with food, yielding 1200 mg calcium and 800 IU vitamin D3 daily from the high-confidence panel.
Label accuracy
50 / 100The high-confidence panel lists 400 IU vitamin D3 per tablet while the manufacturer description lists 200 IU, creating a material unresolved amount discrepancy.
Purity
75 / 100The label discloses ordinary excipients and provides no product-specific evidence establishing unusually strong purity controls or a contaminant problem.
Cofactors
50 / 100Vitamin D3 is declared at a meaningful amount and has an established complementary role in calcium absorption and bone health, but added benefit is context-dependent.
