Dear Lazeena,

We have received your e-mail message regarding Tums® antacid/calcium supplement.

The Tums® EX Sugar Free and the Tums® Smoothies contain animal derivatives.

All other variants of Tums® do not.

We appreciate your taking the time to contact us.

Sincerely,

    That;s wonderful! When I was pregnant I lived on these. I'll be needing them for that again in a few years, insha'allah.
