valhughes 24 Posted June 5, 2013 I was sleeved May 14th and I've done really well but like others struggling with Protein. But also every time I take a Bariatric Advantage chewable Vitamin I get sick! I even take phenergren with it and I still throw it up. Does anyone else have this problem?? I go back for my 1st postop appt tomorrow. I will ask but didn't know if anyone else was given a substitute to try instead of the Vitamins? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillInAtlanta 24 Posted June 5, 2013 I haven't had that issue but taking bariatric advantage's Iron chewable makes me sick. I've even tried just swallowing it, buy after a while it still comes back up Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heatwhip 166 Posted June 5, 2013 I take a Equate (Walmart braand) chewable complete Multivitamin and it goes down fine. No problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cwaffordnotary 3 Posted June 5, 2013 I bought Reviva online at costco it tasted great it is a liquid Vitamin. I also do not like the chewable Vitamins. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purrplelover 48 Posted June 5, 2013 Check with your doctor if there is something else you can take. I had the same problem with my lap band, and he lets me take the flinstone chewable vitamins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kchristian 64 Posted June 5, 2013 Centrum chewables was on my list of approved Vitamins to take. 2 of them daily. The orange flavor doesn't bother me one bit! Cheap, available @ Walmart and they work! Give em a try Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newcarter13 10 Posted June 5, 2013 I too get sick every time I try the Bariatric Advantage chewable multi Vitamin. That is the only think I have gotten sick with. I stopped taking them and went with the Centrum chewable.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustSkinnyMeInside 89 Posted June 5, 2013 I also got sick with every chewable Vitamin I tried (Bariatric Advantage, Celebrate, Trader Joe's brand, etc.). I took my prilosec before and it still didn't help. I finally found a way that I can take them. I put them in my "cheek" to dissolve slowly like a sweet tart. It takes an hour or so to completely dissolve, but I get my Vitamins (slowly) so it doesn't upset my stomach. I like the Celebrate pineapply/strawberry flavor and Bariatric Advantage Orange flavor. Just find one that tastes good to you so you don't mind sucking on it for awhile. Good luck and hope this helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
valhughes 24 Posted June 5, 2013 Thank you! Yes the one I take has Iron in it also. I will ask if I can switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
