I pushed "post" too quickly!! Sorry!! At Bariatric Advantage I am on the auto ship plan....they send it automatically however often I specify, and therefore I get free shipping. There are 60 chews in each bag, and I take 4 per day. (1000 mg total) I have them send 2 bags at 9.99 monthly. So it costs me $20 per month.

calcium citrate chewables are so expensive! I could spend $15 every two weeks to get in enough. I just don't like taking the non chewable horse pills, and have even tried the minis, yuck. They sit in my stomach like a clutch of rocks....I am now using Bariatric advantage chewable tabs, they come in wild cherry, mint, cinnamon and chocolate. I am getting them in the large bottle, its a much better deal. Each tab is 500 mgs and I don't mind the taste, however they are very powdery and I would say exhale while eating or the dust gets in your lungs! I use cherry. Getting in 1000 a day adds up to about $12 a month. I think there are about 270 tabs in a bottle if I remember correctly....

I found a chewable fruity calcium supplement at Target that also has vitamin D. It is Target's brand and it cost approximately $7.50. I like the taste and the price. I take one twice a day.

if you are on a ppi, you have very little acid in the stomach, most calciums need acid to be absorbed... except citrate.
