swallow vitamin vs chewable - how long after surgery



Recommended Posts

I was told I couldn't take a pill larger than a dime (I had RNY). I am taking chewable vitamins no but the procure brand has a capsule but it shows a picture of it the size of a dime. Is anyone here able to take a pill that big. I does say the capsule is a quick dissolving veggie base so I don't think it would get stuck but I'm hesitant to try to swallow anything the size of a quarter yet.

I had no problem taking the huge Citracal pills when I got home after my bypass.

I take the ProCare quick dissolve sometimes. I alternate between those and chewable. 6 weeks post op... most days I prefer the chewables still for some reason. But I can swallow them with no issues. I have to take them right before bed though. Otherwise I get really sick.
