Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted April 5, 2013 No. My dr has me on Calcium with vit D http://www.bjs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10201&storeId=10201&partNumber=P_129964138&sc_cid=GPLA&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=129964138 But I buy these at costco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted April 5, 2013 The chews I found at costco were Calcium carbonate. Viactive is calcium carbonate.. I have not found any other chews or gummies other than bariatric specific chews available online that were calcium citrate. (vitafusion gummies are not calcium citrate) I am taking citrical petites and puritain's pride minis... they are smaller in size.. I take six per day spread out throughout the day... ALSO, you don't have to do the chews if you don't want to , Bariatric Advantage makes wafers in many flavors that are a lot cheaper and have fewer calories than the chews.

bmbrush413 124 Posted April 5, 2013 I like Calcet - you can get them online. They come in chocolate (YUMMY!!!) and lemon (haven't tried yet - but heard they're good). I've also tried the caramel ones from Bariatric Advantage, but I like the Calcet ones better. At the moment, though, I'm using Wellesse liquid - it's creamsicle flavored. Got a free sample and a couple of bottles with coupons so I'm going to use those until it runs out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted April 5, 2013 I or my lab work show no signs or reason to require me to take calcium citrate over the vitafusion I'm currently taking. I don't have an absorption issue so I feel good with what taking ATM. Like said.. Follow docs orders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jjoyce282 23 Posted April 5, 2013 My NUT is very big on making sure it is calcium citrate. I couldn't tolerate the chalky chewables so she said to get the citracal with D3 gummies. They are pink, purple and orange. I take two twice a day. It's only for a few weeks til I can tolerate the pills again. At first I was worried about the carbs in them but she assured me that it won't affect anything! 1 sheetmetalgirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
