I can't stand the chewable vitamins, I've tried many kinds and its the texture that gets me. Can I crush them and mix them with something and still get the same benefits? Everyday I dread taking them, leading to me skipping them sometimes which is not good at all! Any suggestions are appreciated.

I don't see why not. I'm sure you could crush it and mix it into a little applesauce. Maybe check with the surgeons office first, just in case.

theres a liquid multi from Wellesse . its not too bad tasting. 1 oz twice a day.. think of it like a shot!

I suck on mine instead of chewing them. I'm still pre op, but I have some samples of Baratric Fusion the Dr's office game me. I ran out of my regular multi vitamins and instead of buying a new bottle, they said I could start using them. The texture bothered me too. But I found if I suck on them for a while first, then I can chew it with no problem. the strawberry ones taste the best to me.

can we swallow pills post op, my iron are not chewable, i got the sublingual b 12...my calcium and multi are chewable...its just the iron...

I've been swallowing pills since post-op day 2 with no problems. Currently I swallow 7 per day spaced out, one at a time from AM to PM.

Last week I switched to a pill multi- couldn't handle the chewable anymore. I have been breaking them in half and they go down ok. My calcium is the Calcet Creamy Bites. They are a little pricey but I figure its worth it to find ones I like. My Iron is a small pill- the multi doesn't have any in it. I do b12 injections so don't have to worry about that pill.

Celebrate makes a chewable iron. Also my nut gave me a sample of a chewable multi that's more like a starburst. I think it's celebrate too.

Celebrate is online. I got my calcet creamy bites from them. I've tried their multi and calcium too. They were too chalky to me.
