Feeling sick after multivitamin



Recommended Posts

Anyone else having trouble with their Multivitamin? It was fine for the first week or two, but for the past few days, I've been feeling sick after I take it. It's just a Celebrate chewable multivitamin with Iron.

Any advice?

I used to take Centrum... no probs. Then I ran out and figured I’d give this sample I got a try. Big no go. Might of course work for others but Bariactiv did not work for me. I’ll be going back to Centrum. (My surgeon ok’s regulars as long as it has 400 folate in it)

Thanks! Good to know it's not just me. I'll look into Centrum.

Are you chewing it on an empty stomach? I know that multi-bites irritate my stomach if I haven’t eaten anything.

I take it right after Breakfast so I don't forget.

You could try cutting it up and eating less at a time.

Otherwise, you may need to switch types.

I'm going to try it. I stopped taking Vitamins because I was having so much difficulty with them.

Find something that works but take your vitamins! Too important a part for you to give up on!!

I got some different Vitamins. I don't want feeling sick afterward to deter me from taking them. Let's see how Centrum treats me.

I take all my previous complaints back... can’t delete for some reason. Turns out the culprit was taking them on an empty stomach. Well, learning curve and all that.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
