Is this apollo cholecalciferol soft gel tablet vegetarian or has animal content?

As the packaging does not specify the source, it is safest to assume that Apollo Pharmacy Vitamin D3 60000 IU capsules may not be vegetarian. If you require a vegetarian or vegan option, choose a product that is clearly labelled as such.

I understand you're asking whether Apollo cholecalciferol soft gel tablets are vegetarian or contain animal-derived ingredients.

  • Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is commonly sourced from animal-based ingredients like lanolin (from sheep’s wool), though some vegetarian or vegan forms exist derived from lichen or plants.
  • Soft gel capsules often use gelatin to form the capsule shell, and gelatin is typically made from animal collagen, making these capsules non-vegetarian.
  • Specifically, Apollo brand cholecalciferol soft gel tablets usually contain gelatin, which means they are generally not vegetarian.
  • To be certain, it’s best to check the product packaging or contact the manufacturer directly for detailed ingredient information.
  • If you prefer vegetarian or vegan Vitamin D3 supplements, look for products labeled as such, often made from lichen-based or plant-derived Vitamin D3 in non-gel capsule or tablet forms.

If you have any concerns or need a suitable alternative, I recommend consulting a pharmacist or a doctor who can guide you to the best option for your needs.
