Calcium supplements if allergic to dairy

I have a client that is possibly allergic to dairy. He is on Calcium 500mg (PO) daily. Could this be contributory to his explosive and liquid stools?

Frequently occurs after bedtime.

He is also on Lactaid but receives dairy.

He would probably be unable to see an Allergist for skin testing due to his mental capacity.
