How much Calciobase to take
Take 1 or 2 stick packs per day, based on need. Do not exceed the suggested dose. Before using Calciobase for other purposes than those listed herein, consult your physician. Calciobase is formulated in 10 ml sticks, containing 500 mg of calcium, to facilitate use. So, for example, if you needed to take 1000 mg of calcium a day, you would take two 500 mg stick packs per day at different times of the day. This increases the absorption of calcium, as daily dosage is broken down in several administrations throughout the day (3,4).
