Can you take vitamin D and magnesium together?

Short answer: Many people take vitamin D and magnesium together, often at the same meal, and the two are frequently paired. Vitamin D does best with some food since it's fat-soluble, while magnesium is often taken in the evening. If you're unsure about combining supplements, your pharmacist can advise.

A common pairing

Vitamin D and magnesium are often taken together, and many products even combine them. Taking them at the same meal keeps your routine simple, which is usually the practical goal.

Vitamin D is fat-soluble, so a meal with some fat suits it, while some people prefer magnesium in the evening if they find it relaxing — you can do either depending on what you'll remember.

Keeping the routine simple

Whether you take them at one time or split them, a reminder makes it effortless. Pillog lets you group doses or set separate times, check them off from the notification, and see your month as a card, all on your phone with no account and no ads.

If you take several supplements or any medicines, a pharmacist can confirm sensible combinations and amounts.
