I got mine at Walgreens. Calcium with vit d3 chews, womens health liquid Vitamins, and vit b-12 sl


I take two prenatal gummies, 2 Carmel flavored calcium chews, extra d3, 2 biotin 5000 melts, and centrum silver chewable. Oh and Prevacid

I'm in Australia so they are different from the US:

Blackmores Sustained Release with Antioxidants multi - 1 per day

Blackmores Total Bone Health (calcium citrate, Vitamin D, magnesium - 600 mg total calcium) - 2 per day

Fiber chews - 2 per day

Nexium 20mg - 1 per day

I take Trader Joe's Chewable High Potency Multis (bought at Trader Joe's of course). I pick up whatever Vitamin D supplement is on sale at Kroger or CVS. The rest I get from Amazon - Wellesse liquid iron, Citracal Petites (for the first 4 weeks after surgery I used Wellesse liquid calcium instead), and Bariatric Advantage Chewable Probiotic. I buy the Equate brand of sugar free fiber supplement -- same fiber as in Benefiber but fewer calories and carbs, also cheaper -- and add it as needed to my protein shakes and yogurt.

Wellesse also makes liquid multivitamins and B complex if you prefer liquid to chewable or gummy.

I was taking gummies from Flintstones. They made me feel nauseous, and I was not sure for the cause. Later I found out that it contained fillers like Lactose, Sucrose, Flavonoids, Artificial Flavorings, and Red Dyes which caused my symptoms.

As for chewable I used to take Centrum multivitamin products, like the Flavor Burst Chews, contain the allergen soy. Generally soy allergies cause mild reactions, including vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, sneezing, hives and red watery eyes. Apart from that some chewable tablet multivitamins from Centrum contain lactose which is a big problem if you are lactose intolerant. The same was with celebrate vitamins.

I wasn’t very fond of liquids so I was stuck with the last option of capsules. After consulting my nut, he advised me to take vita4life bariatric vitamins and supplements. Being apprehensive I did my research and found that vita4life did not contain any fillers and mentioned the compounds clearly on the website. Its been two years that I have been taking these vitamins and they have helped me get good labs without any side-effects.

My doctor said Fusion is the only complete vitamin for bariatric on the market.

I was told absolutely no gummies. I'm taking centrum chewable now. Haven't got my others yet as I am having surgery on the 22.
