In general you should consider taking vitamin D supplement if you have low vitamin D levels or are at high risk of this. The need for additional calcium is usually worked out by understanding if your diet is low in calcium-rich foods (mainly dairy-based foods). If you eat 3-4 serves of calcium-rich foods per day you may not need to take additional calcium. Your pharmacist or doctor will be able to help you with additional advice regarding your specific situation.
The type of calcium in OsteVit-D One-A-Day Vitamin D3 & Calcium is calcium carbonate. Products containing calcium carbonate should be taken with food to ensure that they are properly absorbed.
Calcium supplements are usually well tolerated. Occasionally they may cause constipation, bloating and flatulence.
