What is in Foltanx?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 1 round coated purple colored 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| L-Methylfolate Calcium | 3 mg | Higher than 99% of 7,022 products listing folate (median 400 mcg). Per day at the most servings: 6,000 mcg. | |
| Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate | 35 mg | 2,059%* | Higher than 85% of 15,277 products listing vitamin B6 (median 6 mg). Per day at the most servings: 70 mg. |
| Methylcobalamin | 2 mg | 83,333%* | Higher than 96% of 14,425 products listing vitamin B12 (median 36 mcg). Per day at the most servings: 4,000 mcg. |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.

Is that a lot?
The rows in the top or bottom tenth of the products that list the same ingredient, and any above the adult upper limit at the most servings a day the directions give:
- Its 3,000 mcg of L-methylfolate calcium (filed by NIH under folate) is higher than 99% of the 7,022 folate products that print an amount; 95 list more.
- Its 2,000 mcg of methylcobalamin (filed by NIH under vitamin B12) is higher than 96% of the 14,425 vitamin B12 products that print an amount; 529 list more.
The NIH database records 2 servings a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the most of a nutrient per day, from food, water and supplements together, that is likely to pose no risk for almost all adults (Institute of Medicine, 2011). It does not apply under medical supervision. This page compares labels; it is not medical advice.
