For now, since time is wasting, I decided to go with the online place I have bought vitamins prior to surgery, Puritans Pride. I got chewable prenatal multi, chewable calcium, I have vit D, as I have to take that before and will start with all this and see how it goes.

I use Celebrate calcium and I get it at a local nutrition shop. It's also available on Amazon. I get my B12, Flintstones, and D3 from Walmart or Target.

I get everything I need from WalMart or walgreens. I used to order too but it is just easier and more economical this way. All of my blood work has been spot on so I know what I'm doing works! I take Flintstones with iron-2 a day, calcium citrate- 2 or 3 a day depending on how much milk I've drank, iron, and a b12 once a week. That's it.

It's weird how different doctors are. I was told to stay far away from Calcium Citrate found in Walmart/Target because it doesn't have what we need. I also take B12 every day.

I think one of the most important things is to look for the black UPH seal on the label

I also use Flintstone Multi -Vitamins and I order my chewable Bariatric Advantage calcium on Amazon and my B 12

I am using gastric bypass vitamins from vita4life. It also available on Amazon

Walgreens & Walmart dont have the correct calcium citrate. I ordered mine from Amazon today. I post op gastric bypass 5 days now. I purchased gummy vitamins "Alive" womens vitamin & liquid B12 from Walmart. I am tolerating

them both well so I hope they are both working.

I was terribly confused about MVI, calcium and B12. I ended up talking with a Registered Dietician from Unjury and now get all from them. It's just a bit more than the CVS brand and you get 15% off each delivery plus free shipping and handling.
