There is no harm in Taking Tums with Metformin if you have type 2 Diabetes.
You would not have any strange side effects at all.
And I am Positive of this becuase my Father has type 2 Diabetes, and takes Tums all the time.He also takes Previcid, which is pretty much like Zantac. So Your In no Danger what so ever.
Hope I was Helpful.
