I take the Celebrate Multi-Complete vitamin. They're a multivitamin specifically formulated for the sleeve patient, and they have the iron already in them. I have both the orange and the forest berry, and they're delicious! I believe you can order samples from the Celebrate website, and I order my vitamins from Amazon.

If I recall correctly, CelebrateVitamins.com has a multi with Iron (which didn't have as much iron in it as my surgeon recommends) and one without. I chose the one without, and a separate chewable iron tablet. I actually like the grape flavor of their iron tablet.

I order mine directly from Celebrate.

The Celebrate Multi-complete has 36mg iron in the two-a-day tablets, so a full day's supply. Do you like the taste of your Vitamins, JeanZ? I was so worried they'd be gross, but after trying a sample at my surgeon's office, I was hooked! Now they're like a treat!

Wellesse liquid iron tastes good and liquid iron is more easily absorbed than other forms. I took a double dose (with permission from my dietician) - one T. in the morning, one at night - for the first four weeks after surgery, then switched to normal iron pills I can buy at the supermarket.
