Re: Tums??
I would go by the direction on the package...I THINK it says 2 Tums every 4 hours...or as needed. But I am not sure.

oh cwap....I don't have my bottle with me to tell you.
Regular strength on their website says:
Directions Chew 2 – 4 tablets as symptoms occur, or as directed by a doctor Do not take more than 15 tablets in 24 hours. Do not use the maximum dosage for more than 2 weeks without consulting your physician.

Re: Tums??
it says to take 2-4 twice a day but i have been taking like 2-4 every 2 hours. it also says not to take more then 10 in a day. i take them as the heartburn comes. so far im still alive but i do get a little nauses feeling sometimes which i blame on the tums.

Re: Tums??
It says 2 on the back, so thats all I have ever taken. Not sure what the doctor would say, but 2 have always worked well for me.

Re: Tums??
I just read somewhere that drinking milk helps heartburn symptoms...so I chased a few tums the other day with some milk and it did the trick.
