Hmm. I’m not sure why she’d say no, unless maybe she meant it wasn’t an absolute must? I don’t see how that could be harmful unless you take too much calcium. Vitamin D would be hard to over-do.

My father is taking Fosomax to prevent bone loss and he was already prescribed a multivitamin that includes calcium and vitamin D because he’s mostly on tube feeding.

I’d be interested to see what they say.
