There shouldn't be a difference.  I have generic.

I'm gonna get walmart ones for now.  If I find that my first labs post op aren't good, then I will order them, but the nurse said they should be fine at walmart.

My surgeon told me it was ok to buy the store brands, but I decided that since I am over 50 that Centrum silver chewables would be better for me.

Hello Buffy,
My surgery date is 10/14/08 and I have already started using the Walmart brands.  They do work as well. 
Sincerely,
Miky

Can you use chewables right after surgery? Or only liquid vitamins?
