OK well its seems I take a lot of vitamins

AM-2 Iron(really rough on my tummy), 2 Fiber wafers(personal addition for regularity) Prilosec for reflux for the first month only, 1000mg B-1

Mid PM-2 Iron again, 1 400 IU Vitamin E, 2 Chewable Mutli Vitamins from bariatric advtange

PM- 4 Tums for calcium

And once a week B-12 sublingual 1200mg

I found a chewable Calcium Citrate online but not in store yet....they are the candy type chews.

Flintstones are on people's lists because there are few "adult" chewables. Early out most doctor's don't want you taking things in pill form. And bluntly, the liquids that you can get in the regular drugstore are gag-worthy, at best.

I take (on doctor's orders)
Prenatal vitamin (for the iron, folic acid, and multi-vitamin properties) every morning.
Vitamin A as Beta Carotene - the only thing I ever tested low on - every morning.
B12 sublingual (under the tongue) - every morning
Centrum multivitamin - every night.
Flaxseed Oil - for regularity, among other things - every morning and every night
Calcium Citrate - 500 mg three times a day

I also take, on my own, Fish Oil with Omega 3s every morning and every night, as there's heart disease in my family.

Okay, I am seeing Flintstone vitamins on many people's lists, this is being serious right?

I get excited when I would eat a Wilma or a Betty

Felt guilty about doing a Pebbles

I never thought about that. I usually just grab one and eat it. I'm not overly fond of the taste....oh well. Tomorrow I'm gonna look at the one I take and bite the little head off first!

Ah, it's nice to be back in a world where poop matters...

I take the Flaxseed Oil in gelcap form... and yes, it seems to help.

I'd better eat up all my Centrum Silvers before my surgery!

I'm on Paxil for panic attacks... at my psych eval, the dr. told me it comes in a liquid form.... oh my!

Do you all use Liquid Tylenol (childrens?) when needed???

JenBear7 · 08-15-2007, 10:03 PM

You want to be careful about the children's liquid tylenol. It has a lot of sugar in it. I bought the adult liquid tylenol for a right after surgery and it doesn't have all of the sugar.
