Bronson Zinc Picolinate Complex — What the Label Says
Bronson Zinc Picolinate Complex is a high-potency zinc supplement from Bronson Laboratories, the New York vitamin maker in business since 1960. Each vegetarian capsule delivers 50 mg of zinc — 455% of the Daily Value — supplied as an even split of two forms: 50% zinc picolinate and 50% zinc oxide. The panel prints that split as 50% Zinc Oxide and 50% Zinc Picolinate — which works out to 25 mg from each form in every capsule.

The Serving Math
At the labeled serving of one capsule daily, a single 100-count bottle lasts 100 days — a little over three months from one purchase. The 2-, 3-, and 4-pack options extend that to 200, 300, or 400 days of supply from a single order.
Capsules, Not Tablets — and Who Sells Them
Searching for who sells Bronson zinc tablets? Note that Bronson supplies this 50 mg zinc as vegetarian capsules rather than pressed tablets. Mayrip stocks the genuine 100-count bottle (Bronson item #1156-100, manufactured in Hauppauge, NY) and ships it free within the United States, with 1–2 business days of handling and 3–4 days in transit.
Picolinate, Oxide, and How 455% DV Is Calculated
Zinc picolinate is zinc bound to picolinic acid, one of the body's mineral transporters; zinc oxide is a compact inorganic form. Bronson also makes a separate 30 mg pure zinc picolinate product — this page is the 50 mg Complex, which combines both forms in one capsule. The FDA's Daily Value for zinc is 11 mg for adults, so 50 mg works out to the 455% DV shown on the panel. For context, the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements lists 40 mg per day as the adult Tolerable Upper Intake Level for zinc from all sources — this is a deliberately high-potency formula. The label directs adults to take one capsule daily, preferably with a meal, and not to exceed the recommended dose; it also advises against use while pregnant or nursing and recommends consulting a healthcare professional if you have a medical condition or take medications, including antibiotics.
Zinc itself is an essential trace mineral; the NIH notes it is involved in normal immune function, protein synthesis, wound healing, DNA synthesis, and cell division.
