lcawthorne 0 Posted June 30, 2020 Hello. Gastric Bypass June 24 2020. Ordered the Bariatric Advantage Multivitamin. Don’t know if I can tolerate. They are very strong. Any suggestions on what you take and tolerate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mimi8808 0 Posted June 30, 2020 I didn't have gastric, but I have been looking into the same thing as I don't think I am getting enough from food intake. I am looking into the liquid vitamins and Patches now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beaker27 37 Posted June 30, 2020 I had to switch to chewable Flintstones because regular Multi Vitamins make me very nauseous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted June 30, 2020 I just take two Centrum Silvers (or the generic equivalent) every day. I also have to take B12, B1, D, Calcium, and Iron in separate pills on top of that since we need more of those than are in standard Multivitamins (at least gastric bypass patients do). It could be that the bariatric specific multivitamins include most/all of the extra we need - but I'm not sure. I've never take bariatric specific ones.

Lanie992 168 Posted June 30, 2020 Are you able to cut them? Maybe you could cut it in half and take it twice a day to help you tolerate them? I just take ALIVE Gummy one-a-day Vitamins and separately Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Iron, and Calcium pills. I have the RX B12 nasal spray. I don't know if I am doing enough but I will find out in another 2 1/2 months when I do lab work again. (I also take Biotin and collagen pills for my hair, even though there is a lot of debate on whether that actually works with Hair loss. I read it helps with regrowth, so I will continue to take it - even though I haven't experienced the dreaded hair loss yet). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tracyringo 503 Posted July 1, 2020 I take Flinstones chewable 2 per day. I had bought bariatric45 90 day supply and I cant tolerate them at this point. I am hoping that may change later on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NovaLuna 710 Posted July 1, 2020 I take 1 Bariatric Complete multivitamin and 2 Celebrate multivitamins (without Iron for the Celebrate) a day. And 2 calcium citrate from Bariatric Advantage (my Calcium was high last test so I cut back to 2, I was taking 3). The Celebrate multi's are the easiest on my stomach.

Prestonandme 107 Posted July 1, 2020 I've been taking BariatricPal Multivitamin ONE capsules for six months. I've had my blood work done twice and everything is fine. I've had no problem tolerating the capsule. Also, BariatricPal's Multivitamin annual subscription (four bottles) costs much lower than most other bariatric multivitamins.

Mebadwow 10 Posted August 1, 2020 I can’t seem to stand the taste of the Bariatric Fusion Orange anymore. I bought them for the simple fact I would only need to buy B12. Any suggestions for ones that taste good?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
