Overview
•Calcium and magnesium at these dosages are well within safe limits (UL 2,500 mg calcium, 350 mg magnesium from supplements), with low risk of hypercalcemia or hypermagnesemia in healthy adults.
•Potential mild GI side effects like constipation from calcium carbonate or diarrhea from magnesium oxide, minimized by citrate forms in this formulation.
•May interact with bisphosphonates, antibiotics, or diuretics; space intake by 2 hours to avoid reduced absorption specific to calcium/magnesium combo.
•Suitable for pregnancy at recommended doses but consult doctor, as high calcium may affect fetal development; not for children under 12 without guidance.
•No major allergens in this product; vegan-friendly with plant-based capsule, low contamination risk from Nature's Way's GMP manufacturing.
•Long-term use safe for most, but monitor kidney function to prevent stone formation from excess calcium in susceptible individuals.
