Do Calcium Tablets Come In Pinkish/red Colours?

Hi! I am concerned about a situation that happened last week. I was at my son s house, and he had friends over. My grandson found a small pinkish/red pill (coated) on a side table and put it in his mouth. I got it away from him, and questioned the friend who had left it sitting there. He said it was a calcium tablet. I ve never seen a tiny red calcium tablet. I suspect it may have been ibuprofen or sudafed. Are you aware of any calcium tablets that resemble this description? I did a google image search, and did not see any. I m afraid there might still be a pill (there had been 2) lying around. We searched but couldn t find it. I am worried.
