I can’t take calcium pills (causes extreme constipation which then affects my digestive system), so my Rheumatologist told me to take two or three Tums a day. It seems to be working for me.

Tums active ingredient is calcium carbonate. According to the Mayo Clinic website, this is generally the most constipating form of calcium supplements.

My husband takes calcium citrate because he takes Pepcid. He also takes extra magnesium (with his cardiologist approval) because the extra calcium was causing constipation and as well as leg cramps (in my opinion).
