Issues with chewable vitamins



Recommended Posts

I started taking my chewable multi Vitamin twice a day yesterday. They are the Bariatric Advantage berry flavored. The issue is every time I take them I get nauseated. Tonight after I took it, I started throwing up. Any advice or ideas on how to get these down without any issues? Has anyone else had this problem? I am 16 days post-op. These Vitamins are the only thing that have caused me any nausea or vomiting. HELP- I know I need to get these down and keep them there.

Omg!! So glad u posted this!! I sampled some of these EXACT Vitamins BEFORE my surgery. They were so yummy! After my surgery, when I took one it was the most AWFUL experience. The minute it touched my tongue, I felt like I was eating kerosine or something! My mouth instantly watered up, I was gagging, I became dizzy and had to lay down. Forced myself to swallow it and I was miserable for hours. I kept brushing my teeth , but kept tasting tat awful taste.

I called my NUT and she said its that taste bud thing that can change after surgery. Ugh! Wasted money PLUS what to do for Vitamins? She had me start taking Centrum Silver Chewable...two a day...once in morning, once in afternoon. It's been fine.

I waited a few weeks and tried the vitamins again...same sick feeling. Very odd! Good luck!

must be a taste bud thing, I have the same ones and I love them. Maybe it's too soon for those Vitamins? try another brand until you are further out? Maybe some Gummy ones will help

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
