Sliming, nauseous after vitamins

This morning when taking my Vitamins I started sliming and felt as though I was going to throw up. Fortunately I didn't, but it kinda freaked me out. I am 3 weeks out and have not been nauseous once, even right after surgery, with the exception of this morning. I took my antacid and my Multivitamin with sips of crystal light, as I do every morning.

Anyone have this happen to them, or have any advice?

Sorry if this is a repeated post, nothing came up when I searched.

I struggled a bit with bariatric advantag chewables and have spoken with others who have the same experience. If you continue feeling bad consider switching vitamins see if that helps. Of course check with your nut/doc. I use source of life adult chewable and split the dose am/pm. Just did my 1 year blood they were " remarkable" hope that helps! Happy new year !!!

my vitamins are like horse pills, and it took weeks before I could swallow them. The smell alone made me sick

I have the bariatric chewables and they make me feel aweful!!! I need to find another because I'm not taking any vitamin. They make me feel so sick!!!

It was just odd Bc I have been taking my vitamins regularly and nothing like this has happened before. It might have been just a one time thing and I'm freaking myself out for nothing.

I take Centrum Silver chewable and have no problems. The vitamin that made my mouth feel yucky was the B12 sublingual. I changed over to B12 injection once a month and have had no other problems. If you ar not in the "silver" age bracket ( I am 51) then they have the regular Centrum chewable. Bariatric Advantage vitamins are too expensive for me.

Turns out it had nothing to do with the vitamins. Apparently now the smell of black eyed peas cooking makes me nauseous. Every time I went to the kitchen, I got sick. Asked my hubby to move the crockpot to the garage, and I haven't felt ill since.

Cataro are you swallowing the big pills? I had a pill get stuck once and slimed for hours after, it was awful! That may have been your problem. It could also have been the smell of the peas but I doubt that would have made you slime.

Cut your pills in half for a while.

They are the chewable kind. I break the big ones in thirds and chew each piece individually.
