When in doubt, read the label on your Tums product. Different products and concentrations may have different dosages. If you are under 12, ask an adult to help you use Tums Kids. If you’re taking prescription medication, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Tums. Tums can interfere with certain medications.
If you’ve been taking the maximum dosage for 2 weeks, stop taking Tums until you talk with your doctor. If you are pregnant or nursing, talk to your doctor before you take Tums.
Tums offers several different flavors of regular strength products, as well as “chewy” varieties which have a chewy rather than chalky texture.
