What are the precautions for taking oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets?

Oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets are a type of calcium-containing tablets that are mainly used to prevent and treat rickets in children, prevent senile osteoporosis, and supplement calcium for the body. Oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets are suitable for people of all ages. They are mainly used to prevent and supplement calcium deficiency. Let’s take a look at the precautions for taking oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets, which will help everyone use the medicine scientifically.

When using oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets, you need to pay attention to:

1. Oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets should not be used together with digitalis drugs; drinking large amounts of alcoholic and caffeinated beverages and smoking large amounts of cigarettes will inhibit the absorption of calcium supplements; eating large amounts of fiber-rich foods can inhibit the absorption of calcium because calcium combines with cellulose to form compounds that are difficult to absorb.

2. When oyster calcium carbonate effervescent tablets are used together with phenytoin sodium and tetracyclines, the absorption of both is reduced; vitamin D, birth control pills, estrogen can increase calcium absorption, etc.

We need to be clear that we need to supplement about 600 mg of calcium every day. This is basically the amount of one pill, but the human body cannot absorb that much. Excessive and long-term use of oyster carbonate effervescent tablets can cause a rebound increase in gastric acid secretion and may cause hypercalcemia. Milk-alkali syndrome may occasionally occur, manifested by hypercalcemia, alkali poisoning and renal insufficiency. (Caused by taking milk and calcium carbonate, or taking calcium carbonate alone).
