Vitamins making me throw up...



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 5 months post op, and never had a issue with my Vitamins. Until now. I switched to a new flavor, same brand, but berry instead of orange, and they are making me sick. Not everytime, but twice in the last week. Within 10 minutes of taking them I am throwing up. Any advice? I hate to go get new ones, because they were $40 for the bottle. Would it help to take them with food, without food, night, day? Anything? So far the two times they made me sick, once was on an empty stomach, the other was about 30 minutes after eating some Soup. Both in the morning.

I would probably go ahead and order the ones that don't upset my stomach, and revisit these Vitamins later. Let some time pass, could make the difference in how well you tolerate them.

Can you return them? Some stores will let you return them if you do not like the supplements. I know that GNC does it and I think where I ordered my first bariatric vitamins does as well.

I kicked the chewable stuff to the door at about three weeks in and I changed over to a pill form because the chewable ones made me sick and according to my labs at that point, my body was absorbing them the way it was supposed to. You might want to consult with your doctor or your nurse.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
