Brand: KR · Form: TABLET [E0155] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that KR Vitamin B Tablets, while containing Calcium as a key ingredient, present a mixed picture for general use. Our assessment is that the Calcium in this product supports bone health, but you must be cautious about the potential risks, especially if you are taking certain medications or have existing health conditions [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is essential for neuromuscular relaxation and proper nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports for this product category. Data not available on specific side effect counts for KR Vitamin B Tablets. However, high levels of calcium in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [FDA data] [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Start with a low dose and monitor for side effects like constipation or nausea. If you take any medications listed above, take them at least two hours apart from this supplement. Speak with your doctor before starting, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or heart disease [NIH ODS].
