nicoleco 11 Posted January 26, 2013 Hey all. I have a question about the Multi-Vitamin. I take 1 opurity chewable a day. Some days it makes me unbelievably nauseous and other days I'm fine. I think it depends on how well I chew the Vitamin. It is so sour that sometimes it is hard to chew. I tried to find a substitute Vitamin, such as a Gummy, but none of them have anything close to the amount of Vitamins in this chewable. Has anyone else had this problem?? I know I need my Vitamins and I am choking this thing down every day, but I hate not knowing how it will make me feel. Any other vitamins you guys have tried? Also, is it possible to take a multi-vitamin pill, not chewable? i prefer pills! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JeffA70 200 Posted January 27, 2013 I use Flintstones chewibles with Iron. I don't find them to be that bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamED 6 Posted January 27, 2013 I'm about 4 weeks out and have to chew a Vitamin twice a day. It makes me terribly nauseous, which is new! It didn't bother me until about a week ago. Now, its so sweet that I can hardly stand it! I'll be asking my NUT about this on Tuesday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hlynn1008 0 Posted January 27, 2013 I use vitafusion women's gummies but my nutritionist told me to take 3 a day instead of 2 since it was lacking in some Vitamins. They taste really good though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mini Me Wanna~Be 56 Posted January 27, 2013 Vitamin World has a very good multi Vitamin that's chewable in pineapple flavor and it has as much & a little more of somethings than Bariatric Advantage one does. That's what I use cus it is cheaper and im on a budget right now. If you don't have a Vitamin World close you can order online and they will ship to you. I don't do the gummies because i was told they leave out some of the important one's because they taste yucky. Good luck in your search :} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JazzyJ 34 Posted January 27, 2013 I was taking one of the Bariatric chewables preop and was fine, but it made me gag post op. I have no problem with Flintstones chewables-and my nut actually recommended them. Much less expensive too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Losing weight 126 Posted January 31, 2013 Biatrics is very expensive I am using them but looking for other options ? What about Calcium ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamED 6 Posted January 31, 2013 My NUT actually recommended switching to gummy vitamins because I was having the same issue. The gummies are fabulous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mini Me Wanna~Be 56 Posted January 31, 2013 calcium citrate is the one to go with. its easier for us to break down after surgery because we don't have as much stomach acid as before surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Losing weight 126 Posted January 31, 2013 What brand are you using ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mini Me Wanna~Be 56 Posted January 31, 2013 I buy my Vitamins at Vitamin world. They have all of what I need and I can afford to purchase them. In the past I quit taking vitamins because they were so ridiculously priced I couldn't justify there expense in my budget, then I discovered vitamin world. :} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
