I do not take calcium every day, just if I have severe muscle cramps. Almost anything with calcium should work, at quite low doses, including many antacids. How calcium interacts depends on what the formula is. I have not investigated most but antacids would decrease stomach acid and so interfere with normal digestion.
I do not recommend calcium made from sea shells. It can be contaminated.
Calcium and magnesium need to be in balance. I think we need magnesium more than calcium, but if you supplement with magnesium without calcium you might wind up with a relative calcium deficiency.
I take whatever the normal dose is, starting at the low end and increasing to maximum recommended dose if necessary. If it doesn't work, and this shouldn't take more than a few hours, then I will not take more.
So usually when my calf muscles clump into a hard ball, very round, and I am in pain I take one tab of calcium carbonate. However I do something extra, which I am not recommending, which is slowly and carefully stretching the muscle while the calcium kicks in.
If I have magnesium to hand I will also take a magnesium tab, again one.
Your problem does not appear to be cramps, so I cannot make any further suggestions.
