They are about 3/4” long x 3/8” wide x 1/4” thick. I just bought another bottle last night locally and actually measured it for you. It is not a capsule, but like a big white vitamin. They don’t smell either like some vitamins do. Hope this helps.

Does this Citracil Slow Release 1200 contain shellfish?

Hello. Crustacean shellfish is not used in our formula. Furthermore, our ingredient suppliers have confirmed that none of the ingredients produced for use in this formula are derived from crustacean shellfish.

How much calcium citrate & calcium carbonate is in it? calcium carbonate is difficult to absorb, do you have to eat first?

I have not taken either but have been researching for my 88year old mother. With calcium citrate there is 20-22% of actual calcium and calcium carbonate there is 40% actual calcium but you have to eat before taking .

how many hours does it take to be absorbed. i need to know this so i can adjust my schedule so my other meds will not be affected.

I called the toll-free number on the bottle. I asked the person who answered what the half-life is. She had no idea what I was talking about. I tried to explain. After she put me on hold, she eventually came back to tell me that a pill takes 8 hours to dissolve. So, if it is a linear process, then, if one takes a pill at, say, 9 AM, it will have completely dissolved by 5 PM.

EASY TO SWALLOW.

These caplets are large, in my opinion, but they are coated and easy to swallow. Have been taking them for at least 6 months and have not experienced any stomach upset. I don't eat breakfast and can take them on an empty stomach. I did learn they should not be taken with fish oil as this decreases their efficacy. Recommend this supplement.

Best Calcium on the Market, 2-a day and done!!

I have osteoporosis and recently switched from the Citracal Petites to these Slow Release that only requires two in the AM with Breakfast and provides 1000iu of Vitamin D3 and 1200mg of Calcium slow released throughout the day. They are white and without any dyes or a smell, and taking two a day instead of 4 makes them very easy to use. They are also easy to swallow, and as always Citracal is a quality product that I have relied on for over two decades. I haven’t had a bone density and I am looking forward to my next one, but my Plasma Calcium numbers have improved with in just a few months and I definitely recommend.

Best Calcium Supplement I Have Used

I have a subscription for this supplement. It's great that the dosage is only once a day and it's slow release. Most importantly, this is what my endocrinologist recommended to me. Calcium levels are good!

Super absorbant

I use this product to keep the balance between calcium and magnesium in my body. I take a lot of Magnesium for my heart and general body health, and at times, need to top up my calcium levels which is easily done by the use of this product. Highly recommend it.
