jenjenp 63 Posted September 21, 2016 I take Calcium. Iron and Multivitamins. I think they all make me very nauseous. Anyone try any of the liquid Vitamins? I take steroids so I need a lot of Calcium but they are so big. I am 5 weeks out and thought I was just starting the feel better but not so quick.

Zipp 7 Posted September 21, 2016 5 weeks out here, too, and having a heckuva time taking Vitamins due to nausea/hurling. I am switching to calcium chews instead of the horse pill wafers. Still trying to eat a piece of multi when I eat. Since I have to take 2 a day, it's challenging. If I take a whole one with food ~ hurl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OzRoo 1,492 Posted September 21, 2016 For the first 3 months I was taking chewable Bariatric Multis, plus vit B12 in a spray. Once I finished my BN Multis, I tried regular Multivitamin, and it made me nauseous. I then tried cutting it in half, and taking it twice a day. This worked for me, no more nausea from regular Multivitamin.< /p> Still take vit B12 in a spray form, powder vit.C, and massive Calcium/D3 now. All good. I am 6 months post op, so now I can tolerate some things better, but still cut my multi into halves, and take it twice a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted September 21, 2016 For the first several weeks I used liquid multi-vitamins, Iron, and Calcium. I used Wellesse brand. I took a double-dose of the multi-vitamins, one in the morning, one at night. My labs have always been great. I've stopped taking calcium supplements of any kind entirely (not convinced they are useful to anyone, sleeved or not, but they appear to have some dangers). I still add in the liquid iron supplement, in addition to my regular iron pill, when my iron panel numbers are not good, and it always seems to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRev 235 Posted September 21, 2016 I have a tub of the Celebrate Calcium Plus blah blah blah, but I'm going to be using my Tespo almost exclusively since they came out with the bariatric bundle. If you don't know Tespo, it's pretty freaking cool. My nutritionist hadn't heard of it but after she did a little research she gave it the thumbs up. It's not the cheapest Vitamins, but I'm a gadget fan and already had it on the counter, so why not! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pup 217 Posted September 21, 2016 I take liquid multi Vitamins from the Vitamin shop, orange flavor. I look forward to the taste and they have never made me nauseous Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rokumok4 53 Posted September 21, 2016 I take source of life liquid. I like it because it's a cap full once a day. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbonet 336 Posted September 21, 2016 The Multivitamin patch is wonderful. Slap a new one on every day with no side effects. Sent from my VS986 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
