The tablets are huge and dry and get stuclk in your throat. Are these capsules or caplets and what is the difference, I want the smooth ones?

These are capsules. The tablets say tablets and are a little less expensive but they are coarse horse pills as you mentioned. The capsules are still big but easier to handle imho.

Do these have any adjuvants? Like stéarate etc.

I do not know if Ester-C has adjuvants. All I do know is that I've been taking this particular brand of Vitamin C for years because it keeps Vertigo at bay because of the bioflavonoids. I have literally taken this product when I had the beginnings of vertigo symptoms and they went away within a few hours! It helps with drying out and balancing the middle ear. Also, I have not gotten sick in many years and take this on a daily basis

Has this product been tested by USP?

I had to look up USP - I don't know. There's nothing I see on the label. I'm pretty rigorous in researching products that I consider buying and this product passes muster with me.

Is 500 mg tablets smaller than ester-c vitamin c, 1,000 mg tablets?i need a smaller tablets so i need to decide which tablet is smaller.thnx

Yes, I have the same issue with the extremely large 1000 mg tablets in this brand. I typically only take half of them. The capsules are smaller. I am rusty on my capsule sizes-- but they ar definitely smaller and much easier to swallow than the larger strength tablets. They are not the smallest size capsules. I think you will manage them.

Does not upset the stomach

Gentle on the stomach. Easy to swallow. Great price. I've been using this for years. I finally found another company Amazon that has a reasonably priced product because I use it all the time. I will buy it again and again. I would recommend it to everybody who wants a good vitamin C product

Good Product

I was looking for a product that had bioflavanoids AND Vitamin C, because my doctor recommended that I take both for various medical concerns. I was glad to find this product since it contains both, and I do not have to buy 2 separate supplements. I find they are easy to swallow and they have never caused any upset stomach.

American Health Ester-C

My sister turned me on to this particular vitamin C. Recommended by one of her Health Care Professionals. Great quality (she did her research) and good price point and value for the money. Now my husband is taking them too.
