Calcium supplement

2021-05-23 03:53:48
I was calcium deficient and due to that my pth was high. Due to corona I am avoiding going to the doctor. In my last blood report my pth reduced from 165 to 93 after consuming calcium supplements 500 mg and vitamin d. But still it has to reduce a little bit to reach normal range. Is it ok to take 500 mg calcium daily my level has reached 9.1 , right now I was consuming 250 mg shelcal. I am worried my calcium would reduce again. Is 500 mg safe to take daily?
