MargoCL 677 Posted September 19, 2018 I use the Bariatric chewables found through the BP store. Yes, they are pricey but it's a 1-shot deal. I hate swallowing pills so as much as I hate spending the money, it's one less hassle I have to deal with daily. I've heard some people take Flinstones chewables - 2 a day I think to meet the daily need for post op patients. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Marusek 5,244 Posted September 19, 2018 Your daily Vitamin requirement is very dependent on the type of surgery you had. So to adequately answer the question, you need to tell us what you had. Of the three major surgery types the vitamin requirements of the duodenal switch is the greatest, followed by gastric bypass, followed by the sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
