Caltrate 600+D3 Review

Caltrate 600+D3 tablets are well liked overall, with most buyers rating them 4 or 5 stars. The product carries about 17,338 ratings across the stores. Buyers mostly praise it as a trusted, affordable calcium and vitamin D supplement, and the main complaints are tablet size and short expiry dates on some orders. **What buyers say it did for them:** Many describe it as a dependable bone-health supplement they have taken for years. One says it "keeps my bones healthy and strong," another "normalized my calcium," and a third simply says "Works well. Have used for years." Several mention that a doctor recommended it. One buyer credits it for surviving three falls without a broken bone. Store summaries also mention that it meets calcium and vitamin D needs and is a practical way to support bone health. **What they complain about:** The most specific complaints concern short-dated stock. One buyer received a package "only 3 months out," another got two bottles that were too close to expiring, and a third reported "Expires April and May 2024." One reviewer speculated that a heavily discounted item would be short dated. A single reviewer received a bottle sent without a cap. One store summary notes a one-star review objecting to the Red 40 Lake dye and to the manufacturer named on the bottle. Another review simply asks "why are the tablets pink?" **Taste, smell, pill size and form:** Size is the most mixed point. Many call the tablets easy to swallow: "I prefer the Caltrate calcium, it is very easy to swallow." Others find them big: "Big pills, but easy to swallow." One says "My only problem is how large they are," and a store summary mentions a one-star review from someone who could not swallow them at all. Two reviewers say the tablets can be cut in half, one of them preferring that to "chalky tasting gummies." One says it is "not too big and only have to take 2." A store summary says the tablets leave no aftertaste. **Value for money:** Price is a frequent positive. Reviewers write "Great price. Great brand," and "cheaper than what I was paying in the store." A Canadian buyer finds it a "real deal" compared with the smaller bottles sold locally. Another says it is a "Great Price!!" for a supplement they take every day. Store summaries also describe it as affordable and good value, and some praise fast, intact delivery. **Who it seems to suit and who it did not:** It suits people who want a familiar, doctor-recommended calcium plus D3 tablet at a low price and who can manage a large pill, or who are willing to split it. Long-term users cite brand trust: "its a brand i trust." It suits less well anyone who struggles with large tablets, avoids synthetic dyes, or buys online and needs a long shelf life, since several buyers received stock close to expiry. This summary covers the tablets only. Any reviews of other forms were left out.
