Vomiting with Vitamins

[dimitp 1]

I'm 4 weeks out, every Vitamin I've bought so far taste horrible, I finally went and ordered the opurity (orange berry), I've taken them twice now once on an empty stomach and once an hour or less after eating. Both times within a min I'm sick to my stomach and have to run to the restroom to vomit. Any suggestions? The nutritionist said not to take gummies or Flinstones Vitamins but I took gummies before surgery and never had this problem. Vomiting is so flippin painful.

Have you tried liquid vitamins? I take Wellesse liquid Vitamins and have had no problems with them. I think they taste fine but if you don't like the taste, you can dilute it with juice or Water.< /p>

I take the Multi-Vitamin, Calcium, and Iron.< /p>

You also might try taking the Vitamin pills right before a meal or right before bed -- my dietician said those tricks work for a lot of people.

Most Multivitamins are recommended to be taken with a meal, I believe this is reduce nausea caused by them. I personally take my Vitamins immediately before eating Breakfast. Good Luck.

I second Wellesse. I didn't care for the taste post-op but you can at least mask/change the basic flavor with MiO or some other no calorie flavoring.

Give those a try...also most Walmarts have them, so no need to order online.

Thank you. I will try the liquid vitamins. See if that's any better.
