21st Century Calcium Citrate + D3 Petites, Easy to Swallow, 200 Count | Highly Absorbable Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D3, Compare VS. Citracal® +D3 Petites, Bone Strength & Density Support

Purchase these for my dad because the regular calcium tablets are humongous. This was comparably petite to the Citracal petites. However, these are round and smaller, but they’re super thick so it’s almost like swallowing a block. Unfortunately, my dad didn’t have his easier time with these as the Citracal petite which are oval and not as thick. With these being a good price, I really hoped they would be the ticket. We’re going to go ahead and use the ones we have, but I won’t be purchasing again. If only they could make these in a oval share that are easier to swallow for elderly people, it would be perfect.

Attached is a picture with other brands next to this one. I've circled this calcium petites brand and included a US currency dime for size reference. My biggest concern was that my 81-year-old father who is vision impaired as well as has dementia would not be able to comfortably take this medicine. I was very happy to see that the size is indeed swell enough that he has no problem taking it and there is no yucky taste as well. I and my children also take them so a variety of ages in our home are able to take it. It's easy to swallow. There's no gritty weird texture. I've never been able to stay consistent with taking calcium because the pills were just so big and difficult and just unenjoyable to take and yet a woman of my age. I definitely needs to stay on top of taking my calcium and so I'm really happy that I found this product and so far I'm very pleased and I will continue to purchase this. It is by far the smallest and easiest calcium that I have yet found and it also includes D3 which is always an added bonus.

Fast del.

Though they are petits, they are still large tablets and a little hard to swallow - especially if you have any trouble with pills at all. Usually calcium is an oval tablet and had a smooth coating. I have a little trouble with these. I mange to get them down, but probably won't go with this brand again.

I've been taking these same pills for a long time and I can't remember having such a hard time swallowing them until recently. I could be wrong but I feel like they changed the shaped. I can hardly swallow them now. Currently looking for something new to take.

Size is round and small to swallow easily

These are so "thick" even tho they are smaller than a "normal" size, they aren't any easier to swallow. I should have returned them but I'll finish what I ordered. (I'm 76--maybe swallowing is getting harder!)

Fast delivery , works as should
