Multivitamin Making Me Sick?

Hello!

I was wondering if anyone has had trouble with their Multivitamin making them get sick. I have always had a big problem with taking Vitamin d, but never Multivitamins. I am now taking the Celebrate brand as recommended by my NUT. Since I've started it post-op it has always made me nauseous, but this morning I actually ended up throwing it up. I have gotten close to getting sick other days. I am supposed to be taking it twice a day, but now that doesn't really seem realistic. I had to stop taking one medicine last year because it did this to me. What brand/type/amount of multivitamin do you take? My NUT did say she'd like me to take a chewable, not a gummy. Has anyone ever had this problem? What helped? I see my NUT on Thursday, but I don't feel like I should just quit taking multivitamins until then, so any advice is helpful. Thanks!

    I now take my multi vit at bedtime. If I feel yucky from it I don't know because I am sleeping. I felt sick when I took it in the morning.

Haha! Love it :-) very smart.

I also have that problem with the BA vitamins. I went to the doctor today and the NUT said it is because they are potent. I am going to take them as long as I can because they are the best for me (according to her). She did suggest taking the Flinstones for a few weeks and switching back. I hope this helps, good luck

I am 5 days post op and have started taking trader joes chewable Vitamin. Doesn't seem to make me sick like others are having problems with. Just thought I would share.

Omg, I took my antidepressant and metformin for the first time since surgery and I feel so so so so sick!!!!

Are you taking it in the tablet form still? Is it possible to switch to a liquid form? Maybe that will make it more soothing on your stomach.

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling so bad =((
