Our assessment
The evidence shows that Premama Digestive Relief contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health and nerve function. Our assessment is that this product can be a useful source of calcium, but you must be careful about your total daily intake from all sources, including food and other supplements [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a building block for your bones and a signal regulator for your nerves. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it helps with muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. High calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels of calcium in the blood can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Start by checking your total daily calcium intake from food and other supplements. Calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin, so take this supplement at least two hours apart from those medications [NIH ODS].
