Has anyone tried these? I have tried the soft chews and wasn't too carzy about those, but saw an ad for the glides in calcium and multi-vitamin versions and was wondering if the are any better.

Kathy, I have never seen these sold anywhere. I would be interested to try them if I could find them though.

I have tried both the vitamin and calcium ones. They are great and are absolutely yummy. I've always had problems with that nasty vitamin taste with other brands and was so happy to have found these....no yucky taste or that awful vitamin burp that seems to last forever. I was banded 2 weeks ago and since then I've had to switch to a chewable instead.....bummer! Not sure if I'm going to be able to go back to the Viactiv ones anytime soon. Hopefully my doc will give the ok at some point.

I just tried the chews and couldn't tolerate them at all. I am going to have to look for the flavor glides.

I LOVE the chocolate/cherry Viactiv chews...have you ever tried those? They don't have them everywhere. I've only seen them at Sam's and maybe Walgreen's.

So what are the "glides"?? I'll have to go look that up.

I haven't seen them in person, just in a couple of drugstore ads Sunday. They look like disolvable strips. That would really be a great alternative to chewables!

Susan, I want to think they were in the Walgreens and CVS ads. If we have them here in BFE, you should definitely be able to find them in Florida!

I take the viactiv berry flavor glides everyday and I love them. They are not too big to swallow (a little large, but not bad) and they slide right down with a pleasing berry taste. I totally recommend them.

I will have to stop by Walgreens tonight and see if they carry them.
