Uses

  • Symptoms of overdose may include severe nausea and vomiting, weakness, or constipation.

How To Use
  • Take with a large glass of water during or after a meal.
  • Use as directed.
  • If you are using a chewable product, it must be chewed well before swallowing.
  • If you are using an effervescent tablet, it must be dissolved in a glass of cold water or juice before taking it.
  • Allow the tablet to stop fizzing before drinking.
  • Drink the liquid slowly.
  • Because calcium can interfere with the absorption of other drugs, do not take other medications within 2 hours of taking calcium.

Side Effects

  • High levels of calcium can cause some adverse effects.
  • Notify your doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, constipation, stomach pain, thirst, dry mouth, increased urination.

  • Some forms of calcium are known to be excreted into breast milk.
  • Though there have been no reports (to date) of harm to nursing infants, consult your doctor before breast-feeding.

Missed Dose
  • Take the missed dose as soon as possible but not if it is almost time for the next dose.
  • If it is time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule.
  • Do not double the dose.

Drug Interactions
  • Tell your doctor of all prescription and nonprescription drugs you may use, especially: vitamins, tetracycline, quinolone antibiotics (e.g.
  • ciprofloxacin), gallium nitrate, cellulose sodium phosphate, etidronate, magnesium sulfate, phenytoin.
  • Do not eat large amounts of bran or whole grain cereals and breads.
