Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Yes-both my Rx and OTC are odorless. Guessing, but as they are fat soluble in capsules, could be rancid? Return them for sure.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 I have been using Spring Valley Vit D capsules and they have a slight odor. They apparently still work because my vit D levels have been increasing. Jenn Phelps MS, RD,LD, CDE > > Hey all...I bought Vitamin D capsules for the first time (deficient) and > they STUNK.
