Who told you to take the Vitamins? My surgeon did bloodwork before surgery and my levels were ok, he said just keep on my 1 a day multi. If your surgeon told you to do it then by all means but your bloodwork should tell if you need more. Maybe some vetrans will chime in.

I take Celebrate bariatric vitamen and my nutrionist said that I wouldn't have to take any additional Vitamins with it . I do take calicum citrate. Make sure it is citrate not carbonate. There is a difference and sleeve patients need citrate..

I have to take a multi w/ Iron, Vitamin D, B12 complex, & 5 calium citrate wafers. I think most doctors base the Vitamins they want you taking on the results of your bloodwork.
