I buy my Vitamins from Celebrate Vitamins. It's a kit. For 3 months of all the vitamins I need is like 140. I have chewable multi vitamins which also have the B vitamins. A calcium plus D supplement (start 6 weeks post op) and a B complex I take twice a week. At 1 week post op my surgeon gave me the clear to swallow my pills. :)

I would much rather swallow them, then chew them! I also use celebrate multi and calcium. I'm just tiered of the flavors, but I'm afraid to try something new. I tried swallowing pills, but that was a very very bad idea...to say the least!

I'm 5 day post-op today and I'm letting my chewable Vitamins dissolve in my mouth but it taste nasty anyways. Is there anyway that I can break it into small pieces and then drink it even though its chewable???

Blend it into a Protein drink.... I have liquid and chewable. Can be blended or puréed with hand tool.

Thats so funny about the flintstones. My surgeons said no because they lack trace minerals. I take.bariatric advantage vanilla chewables. They are delicious. I take an iron pill every other day, b12 shot and calcium of course

I thought so too but the flintstomes completes had the same amounts of many minerals that out doc eants us to focus on as some if the bariatric Vitamins I looked at. Our NUT compared them as well for us. I will also have to take a B12 and calcium.
