Can tums (calcium carbonate) cause bladder irritation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Tums (calcium carbonate) works in the GI tract, so is unlikely to irritate the bladder. Be sure you take Tums (calcium carbonate) according to directions. If you have persistent heartburn, see your doctor. Good luck!
