Try Centrum Adult Chewables. They are orange flavored and remind me of the taste of baby asprin when I was a child. They are pretty good. Then for the calcium, I take the Bariatric brand chewables. Now these taste to me like candy. There are a fruit flavor, caramel and a chocolate. I prefer the fruit and the caramel. If you need more info on the name of those I can get that to you when I get home from work.

Good luck!!!

My old girlfriend used to get queazy when she took vitamins. Doc told her to simply stop. Not so easy for a bariatric patient as a lot of docs want you to take vitamins.

I tried 9 different vitamins before I found ones which didn't make me sick. I took chewable a from Unjury, Celebrate, Bariatric Advantage and Smarty Pants. Ii called my doc and he moved me to capsules at 1.5 wk post op. I took capsules from Celebrate, Natures Way, Centrum and Kroger. Everything made me sick! Now, finally two months out, I have found 'Bariatric Advantage Multi Formula with Antioxidants'. It's six small capsules a day but they are great! Now more nausea and no more $$ wasted.

I would highly recommend trying them. I think I bought them for about $18 on amazon.

Are you taking them on an empty stomach? I can take any brand of vitamin on an empty stomach and get nauseaous. How about drinking a protein shake and then taking them?

Hi Lynn,

Are the calcium tablets you are talking about from Bariatric Advantage...if so did they come in a HUGE bottle. I got them and never opened them and was thinking of returning them since I can't stand the Vitamins and had to switch....but you like them???

Thanks for your help....8 weeks post surgery with lapband w/plication!

Thanks all I am going to tried some of the names was mentioned here , maybe because I never use to drink vitamins my body rejected them :)

Good luck. I like the chewable celebrate vitamins, so this might be another brand to add to you list. The cherry flavor are my favorite. I could probably take pills now, but I still take the chewable.

Hi 2012 thanks , I went to GNC and bought the liquid ultra mega and the Calcium chewable dulce de leche flavor taste like candy so far I drink the vitamins and nothing happen no nausea so far crossing my fingers, it is expensive , I hope later I can buy a less expensive brand I will tried celebrate in the future thanks again!

Oh no! I just got my package from bariatric advantage with all my vitamins. I hope I don't get sick!

I tried some liquid Vitamins, and I threw them up. Certainly not good with the band! Now I take Celebrate chewable Multivitamins, and a liquid cal/mag I got at the Vitamin Shoppe. I have no issues with the cal/mag, and I think it's because of the milkiness. The liquid vitamins are probably too acidic.

I can not take mine on an empty stomach. Instant queasiness and just yuck. So I always take them after lunch and after dinner since I can't get solids down in the morning.
