doctor or go to the nearest hospital.
You may experience an increase in calcium levels in the blood and urine, the symptoms of which are the

urgent need to urinate, chronic headache, chronic loss of appetite, nausea or vomiting, unusual fatigue or
weakness, high levels of calcium in the blood, low levels of acids in the blood and kidney disease.
These are the symptoms of the “milk-alkali syndrome” (see paragraph 4 “Possible side effects”):
