Sudden Vitamin Problems

[Carly 56]

Am taking Bariatric Advantage, and suddenly, yesterday, after taking them for three weeks, I felt extremely nauseated right after I swallowed the Multivitamin. Is that unheard of? I can't imagine why an intolerance would happen so quickly after I had been taking them with no probs. I know others have said they can't take BA Vitamins due to the taste, but there must be another reason that would cause such a quick physical reaction after swallowing them. Any ideas?

I have to take my Vitamins right after I have eaten with a small sip of water.. Found out the hard way that just a shake or empty stomach was NOT a good idea..

Yes I agree with lessofme. I took a Calcium pill yesterday and spent the afternoon with the foamies. Urgh.

Yes, I have been doing the same, but yesterday it all changed. Yuck- what to do?

I was told to take a chewable Vitamin for 3 months and I was taking mine. It was chalky and started making me sick to my stomach so I started taking a Gummy kind and I can take those on an empty stomach and feel ok. My nutritionist said that gummies are not usually as good but I figure taking a gummy is better versus taking nothing or taking something and vomiting.

Same for me. But the recommended dose on the gummy bottle is 2 per day and I take them 3 times per day. This still puts me under the levels I would have gotten if I stayed with the surgeon recommended "Celebrate" Vitamins. So I've gone out to supplement with B6 & 12 and Biotin. (already take a separate Calcium too),
