FAQs

How long does a bottle of Multi-Force Men Active last?
The daily dose is three capsules with meals, so the 60-capsule bottle lasts 20 days. Splitting capsules across breakfast, lunch and dinner is an easy way to follow the with-meals direction.

Can women take Multi-Force Men Active?
The label says the iron-free formula is recommended for women who no longer menstruate as well as men with adequate iron. Women who still menstruate usually look for a formula that includes iron.

Does it contain iron?
No. It is iron free, which is why it is positioned for men and for anyone whose iron levels are already optimal. Ask a practitioner first if you have an iron deficiency.
