When Can I Take A Regular (Non Chewable Vitamin)

[traceyinflorida 499]

I want to take my Vitamins, but they are HORRIBLE! I am taking a Centrum chewable Vitamin. It is huge and I hate the taste. Is it okay to take a regular Multi-Vitamin that I can just swallow (if I can tolerate it), or is there an issue with absorption post surgery? I am 6 weeks post op.

I think if you can swallow it there shouldnt be a problem I'm 4 weeks out and been swallowing mine.

My dr had me wait 8 weeks. Try this "Source of life adults chewable" has everything most bariatric vita have and then some,dose is 2 tabs I split them am-pm . They are so good I don't chew just let them dissolve.

I have been through several different brands & types of multi Vitamins. liquids & chewables were a negative for me. However, I like the Alive gummies from the Vitamin Shoppe. They don't smell too great, but they taste okay (not bad at all).

My doctor told me I could take two children's gummis! And those were great when I was a kid. They do make an adult formula as well

Thanks everyone! It sounds like the gummies are the way to go!

The gummies do taste way better but my doctors office advises against them as they can be more difficult to absorb.
