Our assessment
The evidence shows that Pharmaton Vitality Capsules contain calcium, a mineral essential for your health. However, the data provided does not list the specific dosage of calcium per capsule, so we cannot confirm if this product provides a meaningful amount. For calcium, the primary benefit is supporting bone density and muscle function [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a building block for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization, meaning it helps deposit minerals into your bone tissue to keep them strong. It also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles and nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for Pharmaton-specific adverse events. However, the FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium itself, high intakes can increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Side effects from excessive calcium include constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
You should check the label of Pharmaton Vitality Capsules to see the exact calcium content. If you are taking other medications, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Without the exact dosage from the product label, we cannot recommend a specific serving size. Data not available for other ingredients in this product.
