Zinc Dietary Supplement Caplets - 200ct - up&up™

Made me extremely nauseous and unbearable stomach pains please do not take

Good. Does what it should. Taking these daily since kids came home with the sniffles 2 weeks ago, it was the flu, I didn’t catch it, kids all better now.

Immediate cramping, nausea and diarrhea

This vitamin says 50mg but it’s not purely 50 mg of straight zinc. Yes you can get nauseated but you’re supposed to take it with food and then you won’t, or take after food and before bed.

Great deal for zinc. Take it everyday

Can’t return if opened. Cause muscle pain and weak. Over dose zinc depleted copper. Wasted money and my son still in pain.

Made me incredibly nauseous. Began to vomit 30 minutes after taking it.

Instantly naseous and vomitting

Now that there are multiple reviews and several studies that indicate a daily limit of zinc should be around 10mg, I am hoping Target offers an Up & Up version at that level. When taking the 50mg supplements, I noticed I didn't feel well. I cut these supplements into quarters to not waste them, but it's much more work.

TL;DR - Each tablet has 385mg of zinc gluconate and 50.05mg of elemental zinc. You will get zinc poisoning. The first couple of times I took this weren't too bad, but I ended up having a mistreated illness for 6 weeks. I was starting to feel sick so I took one. immediate nausea and then vomitting. I thought I wasn't sick enough to take it and got zinc poisoning.... Nope. I gave it to my sibling who is extremely sick and within 10 minutes they were puking from zinc poisoning. According to the answer by the Target Support Staff, this has 385mg of zinc gluconate equaling 50.05mg of elemental zinc. The safe upper limit for adults is 40mg and that's pushing it. Only 8-11mg is needed a day. DO NOT TAKE THIS. TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT TAKING 50.05MG OF ZINC BEFORE PURCHASING. This has been a terrible experience all around.

I threw them out. Despite taking after meals, these always made me sick.

This is a scary amount of dosage and dangerous! I wish I would’ve checked before buying. The daily dosage for women is 8-9mg and for men 10mg. Over 40mg can cause nausea, vomiting, dizziness, toxicity. THIS CONTAINS 55mg and super unsafe! - Please read before buying -

I like all my food items good brands. Sale prices some times. Delivered in grocery store condition all items. Earlier than I expected. I will write a time. Zinc, essential for health of skin, nerves, muscles, immune system.

This is way too high of a dose. I get sick and throw up within 10 minutes of taking it every time.

Up & Up Zinc caplets fantastic with no aftertaste and great texture!

product great..Delivery not put where it can be reached. I cannot walk. I wrote garage door not front door.

Now that I’m in my 40s, I’m paying more attention to vitamins and supplements and so forth. Also, I figured it can’t hurt to take a little bit of zinc each day to keep from getting sick and keep my immunity up. Plus, you only have to take one of these small pills per day, which is a plus

The recommended dose is 11mg this is way too much

A bunch of reviewers are under the impression that this is 50 mg of elemental zinc. This is 50 mg of zinc gluconate, which is only about 7 mg of elemental zinc. This is a safe amount and shouldn't lead to copper deficiency, but obviously reconsider if you feel sick after taking it.

I stupidly did research on the pros of adding zinc supplements when dealing with PCOS, then checked if there were drug interactions with my current meds, but didn't really look into side effects and dosage. I took just one on an empty stomach for better absorption, went about my morning, started drive to work, and immediately had to turn around - thinking I was gonna lose what little breakfast I had barely gotten to munch on as I drove. Second day, thought nothing of it and had it again in the morning but this time didn't have breakfast because I was running late. Almost projectile upchucked before I even left my house. It took 3 mornings of severe nausea and vomiting for me to put two and two together, finally researched it and lo and behold, the max dosage people should have is really only about 40mg daily, (this one is 50) and it shouldn't be taken on an empty stomach because it is irritating to the stomach lining. The horrible nausea and everything else are all side effects from zinc toxicity. Spoke to my PCP who confirmed and told me to stop immediately. The only thing I'm angry at is myself and I wouldn't recommend taking a zinc supplement to my worst enemy.
