Hi Anonymous,
Thanks for you question and for finding EmpowHER. What was the diagnosis that prompted the removal of your thyroid? Are you taking other medication as well? Are you taking other supplements? The amount of calcium is high, although you should consult with your doctor about why you are taking it and ensure you are doing what you are supposed to be doing for your condition. Were you directed to take it in smaller doses throughout the day? If you are ever unsure why you are taking a particular medicine or supplement, call your doctor and discuss it with them. They and your pharmacist are your best resources for making sure you are properly advocating for your health.
Here is information from our website about calcium: Calcium's
Good luck and let us know how else we may be able to help you.
