Plus-D 20 Tablets

Overview

Plus-D 20 Tablets is a tablet-form nutritional supplement listed for calcium and cholecalciferol, also known as vitamin D3. Calcium is an essential mineral required for bones and teeth, while vitamin D3 helps the body absorb and use calcium more effectively. This product is commonly positioned for people who need additional calcium and vitamin D support, including those with low dietary intake, increased nutritional needs, or bone-health concerns.

The exact strength per tablet has not been confirmed from the supplied product data.
