How a Supplement Facts panel is laid out
FDA sets the format in 21 CFR 101.36. The tool follows these rules:
- The title “Supplement Facts” is in the largest type on the panel and spans its full width unless that is impractical (101.36(e)).
- The panel is enclosed in a hairline box (101.36(e)).
- The title and the headings are in bold (101.36(e)).
- Ingredient lines are no smaller than 8 point; column headings and footnotes are no smaller than 6 point (101.36(e)).
- A heavy bar goes under the servings per container, under the last ingredient with a Daily Value, and under the last ingredient without one (101.36(e)).
- A light bar goes under “Amount Per Serving” and “% Daily Value” (101.36(e)).
- A hairline separates each ingredient from the next (101.36(e)).
- Amounts are the weight of the nutrient, not of its source: calcium, not calcium carbonate (101.36(b)).
- The source may be named in parentheses, for example “Calcium (as calcium carbonate)” (101.36(d)).
- Botanicals name the part of the plant the ingredient comes from (101.36(d)).

Common questions
What has to be on a Supplement Facts label?
The title “Supplement Facts”, the serving size, servings per container (unless it appears in the net quantity statement), each dietary ingredient with its amount per serving, the % Daily Value where one exists, and footnotes for ingredients without a Daily Value. The rules are in 21 CFR 101.36.
How is % Daily Value calculated on a supplement label?
Divide the amount per serving by the Daily Value, multiply by 100 and round to the nearest whole percent. The Daily Values for adults and children 4 and older are set in 21 CFR 101.9(c)(8)(iv) for vitamins and minerals and 101.9(c)(9) for fat, carbohydrate, sodium, protein and the rest.
Why are some vitamins left off the panel?
Under 21 CFR 101.36(b)(2)(i), a vitamin or mineral present at less than 2% of its Daily Value counts as zero, and ingredients that count as zero are not declared on a Supplement Facts panel.
What order do ingredients go in?
Calories and macronutrients first, then vitamins and minerals in the order set by 21 CFR 101.36(b)(2)(i)(B): vitamin A, C, D, E, K, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, B6, folate, B12, biotin, pantothenic acid, choline, calcium, iron, phosphorus, iodine, magnesium, zinc, selenium, copper, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, chloride, sodium and potassium. Ingredients without a Daily Value, such as botanicals, go below a heavy bar.
How do I list a proprietary blend?
Name the blend, give its total weight per serving, and list the ingredients without a Daily Value in descending order by weight, indented under the name (21 CFR 101.36(c)). Ingredients in the blend that do have a Daily Value are listed with their own amounts in the usual way.
Which Daily Values does the tool use?
Those for adults and children 4 years and older. Labels for infants, children 1 through 3, or pregnant or lactating women use different values and a column heading naming the group (21 CFR 101.36(b)(2)(iii)(E)). This tool does not make those labels.
Is a label made with this tool compliant?
The tool applies the format rules in 21 CFR 101.36, but it does not review claims, ingredients or doses, and it cannot see your formula. Have your manufacturer or a regulatory specialist check the label before printing.
