Season26 14 Posted July 23, 2014 Having a hard time getting my Vitamins in. They are so gross! I had a hard time with vitamins pre-op too. What's everyone else taking? 1 TrailriderJulia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kissifur 244 Posted July 23, 2014 I was struggling as well but last week I decided that I would get them in no matter what. I take 1 Bariatric Advantage Advanced Multi EA chewable in the morning, 3 Bariatric Advantage chewable calcium citrate throughout the day (at least 2 hours apart) and I take Natures Bountry sublingual B-12 at least 3 times a week. The trick for me is to let the tablet dissolve a little(or a lot) in my mouth before I chew it. I find that method far less disgusting and after the first 2 days the taste wasn't as bad. You can do! 2 BeagleLover and TrailriderJulia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kissifur 244 Posted July 23, 2014 I was out sourcing my supplies today and came across a liquid Vitamin. Anyone have success with liquid? I found one too, does the one you found have Iron? It wasn't in the brand I found. 1 BeagleLover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starspring 30 Posted July 23, 2014 I tried the wellese liquid vitamins before surgery they were fine after, I can't keep them down. The chewables were more tolerable. 1 BeagleLover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kissifur 244 Posted July 23, 2014 I just took my first post op chewable unjury Vitamin, it tasted gross and came up within 2 minutes. UGH. I totally understand the first time I chewed a Vitamin after surgery it came up and I didn't try again until I was 6 weeks out. Now my stomach can handle it.

You should check to make sure Calcium is not included with iron. It affects the absorption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jjinWA 511 Posted July 24, 2014 As recommended by my NUT, I take my thyroid pill early in the morning. Two hours later I take Bariatric Advantage advanced Multi EA chewable. My Vitamin has Iron so need to space out between thyroid pill and Calcium intake because Iron will bind with both the thyroid and calcium. Following two hours after Vitamin I can take my Bariatric Advantage Carmel calcium chewy. I follow this regime getting in two vitamin tablets and 3 calcium chewys each day. Because I am very low on B 12 I get B12 shots monthly. I take Benefiber every morning. I need it! This is going to be my life forever more! 1 finallyfree101 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
