FUSION vitamins Question

[over65 133]

My bariatric center sells fusion Vitamins. You have to take 4 times a day but don't need to buy calcium/D3. It has everything you need in one chewable tablet. Any of you tried this? I think it's about $25 for one month's supply (120). Seems cheaper than buying Multivitamin plus calcium chews.

Depending upon what surgery you're having that may work for you, but probably only if you're having the sleeve. I WAS taking 3 Bariatric Complete Multivitamins and 3 Bariatric Advantage calcium citrate, but due to certain... circumstances (overabundant Iron and raised calcium) I now only take 2 Bariatric Complete Multivitamins, 1 Celebrate Multivitamin WITHOUT Iron, and 2 Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate a day.

The Bariatric Complete is $20 and with 60 pills only taking two a day means it lasts for a month. Celebrate is $22 for 60 pills and since I only take 1 a day that's a 2 month supply. The Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate is $25 for 90, but since I only take 2 a day that's a 45 day supply. So roughly that'd be $472 a year which is about $1.29 a day. It's really not that bad...

Bariatric Fusion is missing two important Vitamins. Folate and Vit K. Amazon has Folate 800 IU which is amount recommended. But cannot buy Vitamin K by itself. They are all D3 with K2. None of the Bariatric brands chewable vitamins (for first 3 months) are complete with all recommended at proper dosages. WTF.

Looks like Celebrate and ADVANCED EA both have Folate (folic acid) at 800 IU. Then take calcium citrate separate. But more expensive that way. Cannot find data on BariatricPal Vitamins and dosages.

This Bariatric Multivitamin 45 on Amazon has everything but Calcium and only costs $19.99 per month.
