Vitamins post surgery



Recommended Posts

I am being sleeved next week. I swear my nut has probably told me this but I am on info overload. I am now on Celebrate chewables. Do I need liquid vitamins after surgery or will my chewables work? Also, I guess I need to get some liquid tylenol, right?

Chewables are fine. You might find that you can't tolerate them well at first, see how it goes the first week or so. i threw up the first time I took my Vitamins, not pleasant but never had a problem after that. My surgeon prescribe a liquid pain reliever for my post op recovery but I didn't like being on the narcotic so I switched to Tylenol after 2 days. Eigthteen months later, I still take liquid Tylenol (for cramps) works faster than pills. I recommend it.

Check with your surgeon. My instructions from both my NUT and surgeon are to not add chewables until the third week post-op.
