Vitamins making me nauseated



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else feeling nauseated after chewing the Vitamins. I am taking 2 Bariatric Advantage complete multiple formula, if so, any suggestions. I have been fine with food just this Vitamin issue. I am three weeks post surgery.

I had this problem about 10 days out of surgery - switched to a different brand (now using Opurity) and all is well. I did some research and found that many people have nausea problems with Bariatric Advantage.< /p>

Try taking them at night. You will sleep through any nausea.

I was on BA as well with the same problem, so much so that I could not get my Water in. I switched to Flintstones and now my energy is skyrocketed.

I bought the Celebrate bari chewable vitamins for after surgery, and they made me nauseated. It didn't matter what time of day I took them, on an empty or with food in my stomach... I always got this nauseated feeling and increased saliva production. 3 times I vomited and I said enough was enough. I switched to One A Day gummy vitamins. They aren't "bari" Vitamins, but at least I'm getting something in and I feel better.

I am on the fusion Vitamins 3 times daily. I cannot gag these Vitamins down. I am 18 days post op and the nausea hits when I take one. I get these from my dr.'s Ofc.

When he released me from hospital he said to take these:

1. Multivitamins plus Iron. 1 tab twice daily

2. Calcium citrate. 1200-1600 mg. 1 tab daily

3. Vitamin B12 sublingual

I'm the same ill feel sick after just the multi Vitamin everything I'm fine with. I take it at night and if I don't fall right asleep I start feeling it but I have learned if you take it and then eat something small like part of a Protein Bar you don't get sick.

II had purchased the opurity Vitamins. I took one on a Monday and felt sick and had hot saliva fill my mouth but didn't get sick. Thought maybe it was an empty stomach issue so the next morning I took it after eating and threw up in my trash can at work. I bought pre-natal gummie vitamins at Wal-Mart and have taken almost the whole bottle with no problems. I take the Viactiv calcium chews, really like the chocolate but not so crazy about the caramel ones. Just started taking Biotin but would like some feedback on dosage. I just picked a bottle since I hadn't researched it properly before I went to the store.

I was doing Centrum chewables and couldn't stand it. My dr said I could get non chewable and cut them if I needed to. Now I take Centrum for women under fifty- SAMs brand- and swallow them whole.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
