Dr. Ivana Dabaj Pediatric Neurology
I hope your child is doing well by now. If you have suspicion of intake of such an amount he should be examined and blood test for calcium,phosphorus, protein,urea,creatinine(at least) should be taken because Tums overdose will lead to high level of calcium in the blood might harm kidneys and have an effect on his gastrointestinal system, muscles... The important in such cases to examine him and do blood test and observe him. I hope he didn't do any reaction or any intoxication effect.
