Flintstones with Iron? Multiviamin?



Recommended Posts

I'm on day 9 post op and I've been taking 2 Flinstones with added Iron for a Multivitamin. I was taking Centrum chewables but stopped post op after I got home because I'm currently having to take; Augmentin, Hydrocodone, sublingual B complex, sublingual D, Protonix, plus my multivitamin Every Day! The centrum chewable I was taking did not have added iron and I had to chew 4 gumball size chewables a day. I started takin the Flinstones because they have the added iron and I only need to take 2 a day and they are small. Someone told me it's BAD!!!! :( What should I take for a multi?

I can't speak to what's better or worse, but Flintstones with Iron are on the list of approved Vitamins my surgeon gave me. I'll be watching the responses you get - the size, taste and price are right , but I wasn't sure either. :)

My surgeon suggested the Flintstones complete- which is what I take. As long as it's ok with your doc, it's good.

I was going crazy looking for a Vitamin with added Iron yesterday I never thought about the Flinstones. My doctor told me I could take any chewable ones for now that I'm pre op and keep on for two post op weeks then start the biatric vitamin which he said I could purchase there at the office.

The bariatric and Centrum chewables made me sick so my doctor suggested Flintstones Complete which I can handle. I only take 1 per day.

My Doctor and Nutritionist told me 2 Flintstones Complete from now on. That's the only type of Multi-Vitamin that they recommend.

I look forward to my Vitamins because they are really the only things that don't cause much hernia chest pain and actually taste good to me.

Currently only cleared to take B12, Calcium and multis -- soon will add d3, Biotin and b complex

The adora chocolate Calicum disks are a real treat 2x a day -- picked them up at Vitamin Shoppe. Flintstones complete chews are cheapest on Amazon (two 150ct bottles for $26 total and I can share them with my 8yr old niece when she sleeps over)

      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.
