[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 398640, member: 7083"] Anyone taking a proton pump inhibitor (prilosec, nexium, protonix, etc) should be taking calcium [U]citrate [/U]supplements. Not calcium carbonate, but calcium [U]citrate[/U]. Those medications inhibit the body from absorbing calcium which is why you need to take citrate. If you don't take calcium citrate with it and take PPI's long term, it can lead to osteoporosis. Just FYI. (I've been on PPI's - first prilosec, now protonix - for several years and take 1000mg calcium citrate daily.) [/QUOTE]
