browneyesdebra 171 Posted March 29, 2017 I'm having surgery next mont and I would like to know is Vitamin Patch Pack is good source of Vitamins and do they stay on whole 8 hours or should I do BariMelts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thatchbo 13 Posted March 29, 2017 Congrats on your upcoming surgery. My surgeon recommended the chewable Bariatric Advantage multi-vitamins to begin with. You chew 2 a day and they are rather large so in the beginning I really had to space them out - I usually have one about 10 am and another about 3 pm. I ordered a 2 month supply to begin with. I like them - they taste kind of like Flintstone Vitamins. I would perhaps start out with a 30 day supply just to see how they work for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
queendeborahbee 119 Posted March 29, 2017 My nutritionist told me to wait on the Patches till there is more research. She joked since we take Vitamins the rest of our lives there will be many advances. I currently have barimelts for B12, Vitamin D, Biotin and Calcium. I still taking a capsule for my multi Vitamin but purchased powder I can add to Water while I'm on liquids and puree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dianemar 45 Posted March 29, 2017 I got the Patches esp after the surgery pre eating phase, worth it for piece of mind. Looking back I would not be able to have eaten much for the first month, so it was a good fit , better than taking nothing. 1 VSG4Mag reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VSG4Mag 106 Posted March 30, 2017 I use the Patches. B-12 Biotin plus vit D and Calcium and Multivitamin i haven't had my bloods done yet since my surgery was only last week, but the PA at my first post op visit said her patients who use them have all had good levels. I went directly to PatchMD.com and Got a discount for 40% off if I auto-shipped when I received my first order it was a great price if I can find the code I'll post it I think it was spring40 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
