I hate to sound ignorant, but I guess I really, I am...I am 6 days post-op. Why chewables? Easier to digest? Quicker to get into system? Are pills okay or are they a no-no? Thanks!

JenniB, You may be OK taking pills with water, but as you get more restriction, you may find that pills do not go down as easy. I've had more than one "stuck" moment with one of my vitamins. This caused me lots of problems. Now I request my meds from the dr. in small pills or in liquid form. I have also moved to chewable vitamins. My favs are the Centrum Silver chewables. I don't mind the taste or the texture. I've tried the Bariatric advantage and I could not handle the taste or the texture. In reality the taste isn't too bad, but after awhile I just didn't couldn't handle them anymore.

I take the flinstone chewables (I take 2 a day) but I just use the generic CVS brand. Although, admittedly, I haven't been taking my vitamins every day :rolleyes: I should get on that. I love the chewables because they taste like my vitamins from when I was little :unsure:
