Where to buy vitamins?

Hi everyone,

I will be sleeved on November 30th and am starting to research the Vitamins I will need to buy?

Where have you found them to be reasonably priced? I have to take quite a few and don't want to spend $100 a month or more on vitamins.

I am particularly having trouble finding a 27 or 28 mg Iron chewable with 500 MG of of Vitamin C. I may opt to buy the Celebrate Multi Complete with Iron Chewables which have 36 mg of iron and a separate chewable Vitamin C.

Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have been using bariatric advantage and order from their website. My doc required a multi which is what I get from them and a sublingual b12 which I got at Walgreens and they both actually taste pretty good.

I get my multi Vitamins from The Vitamin Shoppe. They are specifically made for bariatric patients & they don't cost a fortune. I buy my B12 from Walmart & I get my Calcium chewables from Amazon or Bariatric Advantage. I don't take extra Iron or Vitamin C & my tests have all been normal. I was sleeved over a year ago & have not had any problems.

Good luck with your surgery.

Any one take gummies?

No gummies, they were specifically excluded from my program as generally inferior. Chewables however were recommended depending on the brand. I take Flintstones w iron and am still looking for the perfect calcium citrate chewable that doesn't cost $25/month or more.
