The human body can only absorb a limited amount of vitamin C at a time. Typically, the maximum amount of vitamin C that can be absorbed at once is around 200-250mg. However, the amount of vitamin C that the body can absorb depends on a variety of factors, such as age, gender, and overall health. It is generally recommended to consume vitamin C throughout the day, rather than in one large dose, to ensure that the body is able to absorb and utilize the vitamin effectively.

Probably, some larger pills are slow release and are supposed to be more effective.
