Hi all!

I am 6 weeks post op and am having serious troubles with the chewable viatmins. They taste terrible and I don't know how much longer I can handle it. Does anyone know when I can start taking Vitamin pills? I am allowed to take my meds in pills form, but I wasn't sure about the Vitamins.

Thanks for your help!!

I like regular Tums for calcium.

I also use Flintstones with Iron. They taste weird to me, but they are small and easy.

Every doc is different but my doc said in order to get the full benefit from the vitamin you need to chew them. They might go into the sleeve okay but don't stay there long enough to be broken down and absorbed fully. I too am having a hard time with the flinstone chewables. They are so bitter and sweet. I asked my nut and doc about the gummies and they both said that gelatins are not a digestible food so you won't reep the benefits from them. Hope this helps. If anyone finds anything they think tastes good please pass it on!!!!

costco has a great prenatal gummy Vitamin (that qualifies as a general vitamin). They're little sugar coated square shapes and they actually taste good. I take two a day. Thanks for reminding me...I'm almost out LOL

Gummy chewable a for both multi and calcium are great I buy them at costco
