    I have tried many products since I was diagnosed with osteopaenia, a pre-cursor to osteoporosis. The brands that I tried were Os-Cal, Boniva, Fosomax, and some chewables from the health-food store. They are hard-milled and contain milk products and they are difficult for me to digest because I am Lactose intolerant. These Liquid Calcium, fortified with vitamins A and D are what the doctor prescribed for me. I found, through many stomach discomforts, that I have no reaction to the soft-gels, (they are lactose and milk-free) that they are just what I need, and my last bone-density test was more in the normal range than last time. I used to get them at the market, and that market no longer carries them, so I get them from dugstore.com. I am grateful that I'm able to have what I need through them, and at such a low price, I couldn't ask for more. -Madeleine Fenner

    The capsules were easy to swallow and didn't upset my stomach. I liked that I was also getting vitamins A and D. The dosage is three capsule per day, however, which provides only 600mg of calcium. Because I have osteoporosis I must take higher doses and that means an awful lot of capsules!

        Found this for my mom who is 93 and had a hard time swallowing other calcium / D tablets. She LOVES these.

            Appears to be a good value but please read the fine print. You must take 3 of these to even get 60% of the recommended daily allowance of Calcium! That means about 6 of these to really make some difference in the average woman's required intake of calcium per day. Not a good value and you'll run through this jar quickly. As with any OTC supplements, read the fine print on dosage, ingredients, etc. before buying.

              I like this product because it has calcium combined with vitamin D in a soft gel tab. I have bought other calcium pills and they are really big and hard to swallow. This is easy to swallow, I don't have to buy a separate vitamin D pill and it is inexpensive!

                The small soft gel capsules are quite easy to swallow and a good way to get calcium and Vit. D. The recommended dosage is three a day. I find it best to spread the three throughout the day: breakfast, lunch, dinner. Taking three at a time may cause nausea.

                  It was posted as 600mg of calcium, so that would make it a 100 servings. That's why I bought it. After receiving I realized that 1 serving is 3 capsules, and it has only 33 servings. Totally not worth it. The pills are huge.

                        These are very easy to take, but the label makes clear that 600mg of calcium are in each SERVING and a serving is three capsules. [...]

                          i think liquid calcium is easier on the stomatch & easier to absorb.
                          you have to take 2 pills a day though.
