Liquid Vitamins And Metformin



Recommended Posts

I bought the liquid vitamins at the Vitamin Store and had my Metformin squished to liquid at the pharmacy. Does any know that if I add these to a Protein Shake will it loose its potency? They both taste pretty yucky taken plane.

You would not believe the pills I have to take every morning, including 4 large liquid hell caps.

My band is tight, 7.5 cc.

And I have never had to crush or liquefy any of my meds. I just take one at a time, with my morning shake, slow and easy. And of course, never with food or near eating solid foods. I would not want a pill to sit in my pouch causing irritation to the banded area. I rather have it go straight into my stomach.

I did get a pill crusher early on because I was told I needed to, but only used it a few times.

May not be true for everyone, just sayin.

I have found there are a lot of things they teach you to do when banded, but have found that many of them may or not apply once you get in a groove.

Thanks B52....that is good to know. I would rather swallow a small pill then take a mouthful of it squished up...so nasty.

Metformin are huge pills! Did you go to a compounding pharmacy or were you able to get a liquid? That is the only one of my pills I worry about. The rest that I take are tiny. Didn't even think to ask on that, thanks for mentioning. Hopefully, I can kick Metformin all together!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
