Have you tried taking calcium citrate or calcium phosphate instead of calcium carbonate? You might already have this info, but maybe this link will help:: http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=6850&page=2 . It answers common questions about taking calcium for osteoporosis.
How much calcium are you supposed to be taking with your osteoporosis medication? Maybe it would be easier if you split up the dose throughout the day.
Quote: Calcium is very constipating and hurts like heck! Osteoporosis doesn't sound too fun either. So, do I suffer worse now or pay the consequences later?
I wish I could answer this...but I don't know! I don't know much about osteoporosis and I know that right now you're already suffering quite a bit. I'm sorry, Beth.
