Caltrate contains 600 mg of calcium and is the convenient way to get the calcium you need every day. Taking a multivitamin and eating a well-balanced diet is a great start to a healthy lifestyle, but you still may not be getting adequate levels of calcium to keep your bones healthy. Caltrate is the perfect addition to your multivitamin. Caltrate is also ideal for pregnant and nursing women who need as much as 1200 - 1500 mg of calcium daily, but already get adequate levels of vitamin D from a prenatal vitamin.
