Hi Jennifer,
I am glad you have an appointment with Dr. Deal. I think this might
help because my daughter cannot tolerate the calcium carbonate
either so she uses Calcionate Syrup (calcium glubinate) made by
Rugby Laboratories in Deluth, Georgia. We order it directly from CVS
Pharmacy. And she always takes it with lots of food, not on an empty
stomach.
Best wishes,
Linda
