Customer Reviews
Good content but way too big
For seniors, who sometimes have a hard time swallowing, creating such a big pill seems ill advised. I did not realize that it would be so much bigger than the regular Centrum Silver but it is. I was totally surprised when it took the bottle out of the box. I tried breaking it but it left rough edges which made it equally hard to swallow.
I decided I would call them to complain, which I did. They told me that it had to be big so that it could contain the calcium. They suggested that when you cut the pill, you polish the edges to make it smoother or that you grind it up. I told them that I really was not interested in doing that much work just to take a supplement. I thought that they might offer me, at least, a coupon for regular Centrum but they did not even take my name.
Wyeth, now owned by Pfizer, is apparently not interested in good customer relations. Not only am I advising that you not buy Centrum Silver Ultra Women's supplement, but I am suggesting you do what I am going to do, look for a store brand that has similar contents of regular Centrum Silver, save a few bucks and put that money toward the purchase of a calcium supplement.

Excellent Product
for those of us who are of "certain age." This covers most of the essential vitamin and mineral bases, and you don't have to add too many more supplements beyond calcium and fish oil and maybe CoQ10. Unlike another reviewer, I have had no problem taking this capsule, and I do not find it to be over-sized. Amazon's price is right. I think it's a good deal in every respect.

Simply the best Women's Multi
My wife shopped multi-vitamins very hard and these have the best overall content. Because of the high level of calcium, she is able to take one less calcium supplement which means one less pill to swallow. Overall content is excellent. The best price is right here on Amazon.
