Help everyone I way wondering how do you take these huge vitamins after surgery when you can barely swallow water and any amount of food? Just very curious because surgery date is getting closer!

Chewables from Bariatric Advantage.

I am almost 11 months out and used chewables up until recently. May sure they are not gummies, as those supposedly are not absorbed now.

Chewables for sure! I'm a year and a half out and still prefer chewables! It takes the edge off in the morning when I am starting to feel hungry. Takes the hunger away! lol

my multi is chewable, B12 and D are sublinguals.

Go to the drug store and buy a pill crusher and a pill splitter. You inability to swallow should only last a couple months after surgery and then you should be back to normal.

Do they make you nautious?

No nausea for me at all and I used to get nauseous from vitamins.

No nausea for me either.

I was having trouble with B-Complex for awhile (i.e., nausea), but they discovered I had a stricture and I haven't had any problems since they "fixed" the stricture - so obviously it was related to that. Some people do have problems with the "B"s in particular, though. I always take that one with food just in case.

For my B12 I found a liquid and the calcium w/D3 and multivitamin, I use chewables.
