What is in Calcium Plus D?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 tablet. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin D | 400 IU (10 mcg) | 100% | 57% of 14,175 products listing vitamin D give more (median 15 mcg). Per day at the most servings: 20 mcg. |
| Calcium | 600 mg | 60% | Higher than 91% of 17,831 products listing calcium (median 115 mg). Per day at the most servings: 1,200 mg. |
