Need Vitamin Suggestions

I am one month post op and I have started taking Centrum multivitamin twice a day as well as Citracal calcium supplement. However, these pills are huge in my small stomach pouch. I was taking two children's chewable and was OK with them. Anyone have any suggestions for adult chewable? Thanks :)

  • How many Flintstones do you take? I'm supposed to take a multivitamin with iron three times a day...so would that be three Flintstones, or do you double up and take six per day?

For Multivitamins - I take Flintstones...love them!

For the Calciums, my pills are large, too, and I split them. I make sure to get a good amount of Water in my sip and hope for the best when it goes down.

Yes, thank you!

@@jands75 exactly as @@LifeIsGood14 states...2 a day...I take them first thing in the morning so 2 hours later I can take my first Calcium dose.

Chewable, not gummy!
