Im confused on what vitamins i'll need

[miangr 11]

Hi, Okay I know you need you Multivitamin and b-12, but is the thiamin, Iron, and folic acid included in the multivitamin? Also, will I be needing Calcium and other supplements? My NUT is closed and I wanna go shopping tomorrow before my surgery nx week.

My nut prescribed the following: chewable or liquid multivitamin with at least 100% daily value of thiamin (Vitamin B1)

Chewable calcium citrate 500-600 mg 2 - 3 times daily. B12 sublingual (1000mcg)

Hope this helps.

Get an adult Vitamin such as Centrum complete or the store brand, B12, calcium with Vitamin D. The viactiv chews are good. If you get the complete multivitamin it will have thiamin Iron and some folic acid in it. Extra Iron is needed only if you have periods or if history of anemia.

My regimen includes a multivitamin and calcium citrate - that's it! I bought opurity online after clearing that brand with my NUT. The only caution is to take the Calcium citrate at least an hour away from the multivitamin (no matter what brand you go with) because the Iron in the multi negates the absorption of the calcium citrate.

This gives you an example of when to take the Vitamins.

[SuNMooNStaRS816 423]

Citracal brand is calcium citrate with Vitamin d. Just a different brand. I buy the store brand from Walmart, CVS or Walgreens.

As long as what you're taking is citrate and not carbonate, you're fine. Citrate is easier to digest.

I'm going to get the fusion Vitamins. My NUT said it has everything in it and it will be the only thing I'll have to take. It's only gonna cost me around $25 a month too - which will be a lot cheaper than buying everything separately.

Every female should take Calcium. And if you are on a PPI (acid reducer) you definitely should be on calcium because it reduces calcium.
