Where can I buy 'Tums', chewable antacid-Calcium Carbonate

[how122255]

Anyone know where I can buy or order  'Tums',  chewable antacid-Calcium Carbonate.  They are usually fruit flavored and come in 500mg-1,000mg.  I  have looked around in Pattaya but haven't found them.  They work the best and fastest for me. In the USA,  you can buy them without a prescription and can be found everywhere. The only Calcium Carbonate I see for sale is vitamin pills and they are many times the Tums price. Also they would need to be crushed into a power form. I don't want to try and order from the USA or Amazon due to potential import/customs issues.  Thanks for any help.

They sell Thai ones in every pharmacy by the strip. Worked fine for me. Not chewable but solid ones that you suck or crunch. Cheap.

Thanks...You might be referring to the yellow strips.  They didn't work well for me and they are Not calcium carbonate. I think they are aluminum something.

Get off that crap and alkalise your body naturally with green leafy vegetables (can be juiced) and lemon water.  Lemon is acid but alkalises in the body.

No,  Kamagra doesn't really bother my stomach.  It is the 3-4 shots of Vodka,  when I drink them quickly, will cause the 'hot' stomach.  One Tums and it is gone in 1-2 minutes. Great stuff.

That's too much trouble as relief is only needed after drinking.  Tums is actually healthy as it only contains calcium.  One Tum,  a few times a week,  won't hurt anyone unless your sensitive to calcium.  Might be good for women as they tend to have lower calcium levels. Thais usually don't eat a lot of cheese, yogurts, or milk so a little extra calcium might be helpful.

When I am that way, I find a little Bicarb of Soda mixed with water, drunk in the morning does the trick.
