A form of calcium
Calcium lactate supplements
343 calcium products in the NIH label database list calcium as calcium lactate (2% of the 19,724 calcium products); their median is 75 mg of calcium per serving, against 115 mg across all calcium products (DSLD version 9.4.0, January 2026).
How does calcium lactate compare with the other forms?
The median amount of calcium per serving in products naming each form; the count in brackets. The amount is the calcium the label gives, as printed (the Supplement Facts row normally states the element; a row named as the compound usually gives the compound's weight and is left out of these figures).

Is the amount the calcium or the whole calcium lactate?
A Supplement Facts row normally states the calcium itself (a row like "Calcium (as calcium lactate)"); a row named as the compound (a row like "Calcium lactate") usually states the compound's weight, which includes what the calcium is bound to and is larger than the calcium it supplies. The front of a bottle may print either. Of the 343 products here, 343 give the calcium in its own row (2 of them an amount far outside what other labels list, or one their own %DV disagrees with).
The adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level for calcium is 2,500 mg a day; it covers total intake, adults 19-50, 2,000 mg from 51 years. At the most servings their labels direct, 0 of the 341 calcium lactate products with a plausible amount (0.0%) give more than that.
