I am so worried that I am not getting enough vitamins since I’ve had lapband surgery. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

What is a good chewable multi vitamin? I’ve been taking Centrum Chewables but I’m thinking I should take something a little better.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Any ideas?<o:p></o:p>

My doctor said children's vitamins. I prefer the gummy bear ones as I cant stand the chalky taste of chewables.

See we have talked on here before!

I've been also using the Centrum Chewables. In addition, I also take calcium pills, iron, and B-12, biotin when I remember. I would suggest checking with your doc, but that is what my aftercare doc suggested. I added the Biotin myself.

Also, my doc gave me Bariatric website, that had vitamins that included the proper amount of everything. If I can find it I will post it. I am sure there are tons of those sites though.

Hi,

My doctors office told me to use Flintstones Chewables. The regular ones, not with anything added.

I asked about the gummies....but they said the gummies had no minerals, so not to use them.

The Flintstones taste good and are kinda :whoo:fun.

I take GNCs Chewable Solotron and their chewable calcium and their liquid b complex. I am not a big fan of any of them.

I take Bariatric Advantage chewable multi formula tropical flavor and also

their calcium citrate chocolate lozenges. You can get these at

Nutritional Supplements for Gastric Bypass Bariatric Surgery Patients from Bariatric Advantage These are specifically for weight loss surgery patients. This is what my surgeon recommended.

My surgeon said Flintstone's with iron twice a day for the first month. Then he added Calcium with vitamin D once per day after the first 2 weeks post op.

My doctor says to take the Flintstones with Iron twice a day. One in the morning and one at night. In addition they use Metanex.. I think it is a B12 supplement.

I was taking a chewable vitamin purchased on the internet, but my doctor friend advised me to switch to a name brand like Centrum. The imported meds, pet food, children's toys and now vitamins have gottten a bad rap and are not monitored so he said to take name brand.

I bought some Centrum chewables but i can not take them . They are awful!!!! Donna

I take Trader Joe's High Potency chewable multivitamin and minerals. They're fine, not supposed to be yummy but certainly palatable enough.

Ahhh yes I think the whole "cfred" thing must have thrown me off! Not that it takes much these days
