    I take centrium chewables. You don't have to buy the bariatric specific ones. Also you don't have to have chewables. Just no gummy kinds since they lack thiamine. Do your research and consult your sur

I take Optisource I get it from Walgreens

I use women's one a day gummy vitamins. Right after surgery I used a more expensive bariatric vitamin, but after a couple of months I found out I could use regular gummies I just take 2 instead of one and so far they've worked great. Also much less expensive.

I'm currently taking "Equate", these things are huge and make me nauseous for 2 hours, even if I split them in half and take both in... avoid them. I'm going to change to chewable ones or grind these and take them with a half a Tsp of sugar.

I was told I could take Flintstones Complete + Iron. I bought a bottle of 200 from Sam's Club and didn't like them at all. On the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury website, I clicked on the Opurity Vitamins tab and found their Multivitamin made specifically for bypass and sleeved patients. I just put one in my pill spliter and chew 1/2 twice a day. They are much softer than the Flintstones and taste more like a sweet tart to me. I love them!
