What is in Zinc 15 mg?

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).

The label names the compound (Zinc Citrate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the zinc it holds, so it is not placed among other products.
