Can I take calcium tablets daily or will there be any side effect for that?  

Hi Buchi_bulla, taking calcium tablets at this stage is good, but remember one thing, it should be as per prescription. The doctor verifies the bone density and then gives you the dosage. We cannot really tell you without knowing such things.

hi,friend,here are some tips......
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: Calcium is generally well tolerated. 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. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
Have a nice time.

Calcium can cause stones in some people but not all people. My husband has a condition where calcium can contribute to building kidney stones in his body. But not everyone is like that. For most people taking a daily calcium supplement is the right thing to do and good for their bodies. If you are concerned you should get a physical from your doctor and your doctor will be able to give you a full read out of what your body is lacking in and what your body has too much of. It is pretty interesting to see and by viewing that and going over it with your doctor you will learn what supplements you should and should not be taking according to your own personal body read out.

you can develop calcium stones, only if they arent metabolized by the body properly. take them in the morning so that your body can work with it and use it throughout the day. there are different preparations per age group, you have to be taking in the correct daily amount based on your needs. drink lots of water throughout the day. our body needs water to speed things up, so it's better to refuel and replenish the stores... happy myotting!

Whether you should take a calcium tablet daily or not only a doctor can tell you. Because people around you may tell you what they feel or what they think and it may be right or may be not but only their assumption. So regarding the intake of any tablets or medicines, you must consult a qualified physician who will guide you in the correct path

Sure you can take calcium daily and since you (and I) are what the medical profession calls seniors we should. Just do not take too much. Read the instructions. I only take one because since I do bodybuilding I take other supplements such as portein drinks that have calcium. If you eat yougart, cheese or drink milk as you doctor if you could get away with oone tablet even if the bottle says take 2 like mine does. I knew someone that got kidney stones from taking too much calcium for a long amount of time.

hello, taking calcium daily is very helpful in our healthiness. so if you are confuse about when and how to take this pill, better consult your doctor so you won't have some troubles in the future.

This discussion is 2 years old, means you are 62+ now, my wife is running 60, she takes calcium tablets regularly after she had her menopause, but doctors advised to take calcium with vitamin D only, this helps in absorption of calcium better, well you better use it continously..
Best of luck.
