A 1000 mg dose is standard for daily maintenance. If you prefer a tablet that dissolves quickly, look for rapid-release technology.

If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult your doctor before use. Keep out of reach of children. Always read the label and follow directions for use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly does the tablet dissolve?\u003c\/strong\u003e KAL Defender-C tablets are designed to dissolve in 30 minutes or less.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan I take it on an empty stomach?\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin C can be taken with or without food; taking it with a meal may reduce the risk of stomach upset.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs this suitable for vegetarians?\u003c\/strong\u003e The product information does not specify, so please consult the label for dietary suitability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow many tablets are in a bottle?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each bottle contains 60 tablets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46714483736737,"sku":null,"price":28.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/0043\/3313\/files\/517j8eHgjQL._AC_SL1000.jpg?v=1784379531","url":"https:\/\/ukvitalityvitamins.co.uk\/products\/kal-defender-c-vitamin-c-tablets-1000-mg-b00020hvh8","provider":"UkVitalityVitamins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
