About Vitamins and Supplements
This collection covers vitamins, minerals and other dietary supplements for daily use, including multivitamins, single vitamins such as vitamin D and B12, calcium, iron, zinc and specialty formulations. It is the companion to OTC Medicines & Remedies in our vitamins and over-the-counter section, and the listed brands include Centrum, Culturelle and Hyland's.
Supplements are available as tablets, capsules, softgels, chewables, liquids and powders. Chewables and liquids suit people who find tablets difficult to swallow, and some formulations are made for specific life stages, such as adult or senior multivitamins.
Strength is the amount of each nutrient per serving, shown in mg, mcg or IU on the Supplement Facts panel. The same vitamin is often sold in several strengths, so compare the panel rather than the product name. If your prescriber recommended a specific dose, choose a strength that matches it. Count is the number of tablets, capsules or servings per bottle, and larger counts are listed separately.
They are sold here as general dietary products, and the label directions state the serving size and how often to take it. To reorder, use the REF or item number on your current bottle, which identifies the brand, strength, form and count together.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right vitamin strength and form?
Read the Supplement Facts panel for the amount of each nutrient per serving, and compare it to any dose your prescriber recommended. Then choose a form you can take easily, such as tablet, capsule, chewable or liquid. Check the count per bottle so you know how long a supply will last.
Are vitamins and supplements covered by insurance?
Most vitamins and dietary supplements are paid for directly. Where a HCPCS code applies, it is shown on the product page for reference. Some plans or benefit accounts reimburse specific items, but that depends on your payer and plan. ArmadaMeds does not bill insurance or promise reimbursement.
Can I reorder the same vitamin in a larger bottle?
Yes. Different counts and pack sizes are listed as separate items, and some products are available by the case. Search the REF or item number on your current bottle, then confirm the strength, form and count before ordering so the new bottle matches your current supply.
