Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is GoodSense the same as Rugby?
While they share the same active ingredient and strength (500 mg Calcium Carbonate), GoodSense uses sucrose (sugar) as a sweetener, whereas some Rugby versions use sucralose. Both offer identical acid-neutralizing power.
How much elemental calcium is in each tablet?
Each 500 mg tablet provides 200 mg of actual "elemental" calcium available for absorption by the body.
Can I take this for sour stomach?
Yes. Calcium carbonate is highly effective at neutralizing the excess acid that causes sour stomach, acid indigestion, and general stomach upset associated with heartburn.
