Hello
I have studied your case,
cipcal-500 contains Calcium Carbonate + Vitamin D3
Calcium carbonate is known for gastric belching so you can take other calcium like calcium citrate which has higher absorption and less side effects.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
