I was just diagnosed with osteopenia of the lumbar spine. Last year's test were fine. I did have a lumbar laminectomy in 2019. However, I do take Pepcid in the AM and PM. I don't know which calcium is best for me- citrate or carbonate. Also, should this be taken along with another for absorption? Is there a one-pill-a-day regimen and how much is safe? Could anyone make a suggestion. I do take D3 K2 now.

@mresnick664 the only thing I am able to say here is that calcium supplements need to be split up. The body does not absorb more than 400mg at a time, I was told. Others can chime in wiht the brands they use.
