Vitamin B12

what's the point of letring it melt under the tongue? is it only for people that are recently post op because it is difficult to swallow? or is there a purpose? mine is cherry flavored but I'm so tired of the taste, I just want to swallow it and get it over with.lol is it still absorbed if it's swallowed? does anyone know...

I'm new here so I hope this is right, I was reading about your sublingual b-12, it is gross I started the injections way better

I am pre-op and I get a shot every two weeks due to my body not obsorbing it from my PCP. It can also be called into your pharmacy and you can administer it yourself!

Do any of you take calcium citrate?

I was told by my doctor that I had to take calcium citrate! I couldn't do the pills they were way to big..so I got the chews- they are very yummy!

Can they be crushed?

I use caltrate petites and I bet they could be crushed. Ask the pharmacist where u get them. That's their job. Also Walmart carries liquid made by welless. I'm going to use that post op. I saw it on another thread and checked it out. It can also be bought online

They apparently have a Bariatric line too. I have only seen the calcium in stores around me though.
