I was perscribed calcium with vit d 2 years ago after breaking my elbow. I have had PV for the last 11 years and been taking hydroxy for the last 4 years. I specifically asked if it was ok to take both and was advised yes.

Best regards

Hi I have PV and am prescribed Hydroxy carbamide. I take several supplements including calcium and vit D. I do check all supplements with my haematologist and he said it's fine.
