Supplement Facts generator preset for capsules: form-specific serving units, per-unit to per-serving calculations and typical other-ingredient groups.

This tool provides automated labeling assistance and general information. Requirements vary by product, formulation, market and regulatory status. Verify your final label against current applicable regulations and obtain professional regulatory advice where appropriate before commercial use.

How this capsule preset differs

The capsule preset starts with 60 capsules per container and 1 capsule per serving, with amounts entered per capsule. Choose “Vegetarian capsule” in the format step to get hypromellose/pullulan shell suggestions instead of gelatin.

Per-capsule vs per-serving. If your serving is 2 capsules, enter actives per capsule and set 2 capsules per serving — the panel declares the per-serving totals.
Shell and excipients. The capsule shell, fillers and flow agents (for example microcrystalline cellulose, rice flour, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide) belong in Other ingredients, in descending order by weight.
Botanicals. Capsules often carry herbal extracts. On a US label, botanicals must identify the part of the plant (21 CFR 101.36(d)(1)); the generator flags any botanical without a plant part.
Column heading. For one-capsule servings you can use “Each Capsule Contains” instead of “Amount Per Serving” (21 CFR 101.36(b)(2)(i)(A)).

Worked example

Magnesium 100 mg per capsule, 2 capsules per serving → 200 mg per serving → 200 ÷ 420 × 100 = 47.6%, declared as 48%. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) root extract 150 mg per capsule → 300 mg per serving, listed below the bar with “†” (Daily Value not established).
