Liquid vitamins post-op?

Do any of you guys use liquid Vitamins instead of chewables? I just had my final NUT appointment and I was given a whole bunch of samples of the chewable ones, but they're quite expensive. I buy my vitamins from a website called swansonvitamins.com and the prices are a lot more reasonable. Swanson has the chewables, but they also have liquid Multivitamins that I thought I might try instead. They also have liquid Vitamin D drops. Any opinions on the liquid ones, good or bad?

Also they sell a sublingual form of Biotin that I'm going to start taking post-op to hopefully protect myself against the hair loss I keep hearing about. You let them dissolve under your tongue so you don't have to chew them.

Swanson is a great company with very fast and cheap shipping. They will also accept returns no questions asked, even if you've used the product already. I highly recommend them.

oh, just remembered...they carry Twinlab's line of bariatric vitamins as well, at a more reasonable price than Celebrate or Bariatric Advantage.

I opted to buy Source of Life Gold Liquid that a Pharmacist friend in a Compound Pharmacy highly recommended. You can also get it online, free shipping, at a range of prices. I cannot tolerate the chalky Bariatric Advantage multivitamins I bought, and I am willing to pay the price of good Vitamins because I want the best health I can get following this surgery. Thank goodness we have a lot of options.
