I tried them but didn't care for them. My surgeon told me to try the flintstones gummi worms and they are great. They taste like real gummies and no after taste. He told me to take two of them. Good luck.

I take the Centrum chewables or the Viactiv chews. Both of them are also great and are an adult formula.

I take liquid vitamins...works for me...but our brands in New Zealand are different from yours in US so i wont try and recommend any! hehehe!!

I am doing a search for multivitamins. I found Eniva Vibe and heard good things about it but not sure if anyone has tried it or not?

I'm broke because I'm a self-payer (ha, ha). :Cry: I got the "store brand" chewables for at least the first month! I guess they'd better do whether they taste okay or not!

Tried the liquid from GNC and forced myself for awhile but really couldn't get past the smell. Now taking chewables from GNC and they seem to be doing the job and they taste good. Do the choc chewable triflex glucosamine from there also.

Even though I am not banded yet, I do work with fresh post op banded patients. We recommend a chewable vitamin. Being a nurse I have had to give liquid vitamins...most people cant get past the smell then when they taste it.....it is very nasty. Even those with a tube feeding complain about the smell.

I also hated the liquid, luckily my doctors office sells the Bariatric Advantage line below wholesale (muti-vitamins, iron, calciim and sublingual B, etc), they are all chewable they taste great. If anybody wants the website info to order online just let me know!
