  • TUMS Ultra 2000
  • TUMS EX 750
  • TUMS Regular Strength
  • TUMS Kids
  • TUMS "To Go"

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,
