I take chewables.  I don't know why I hate them, but I do.  It is so simple, but I keep forgetting to take them.

I take as much as I can in chewable form.  The rest I chew anyway, it's not too nasty after you get used to it.   My  theory is that I'm helping out  Irene if I help digest it a little first.   Chewable: C - 2 500 mg each Calcium Citrate - 2 Lozenge/Sublingual: B12 - 1,200 mcg Biotin - 5000 mcg Swallow: Multi-Vitamin - 1 a day E - 400 IU Selenium - 200 mg D-3 - 1 a day I think that's it. Take care. Ellen

I swallow all mine.  Here's what I take each day: 1  B12 sublingual 1  Multi vitamin 2  Iron tablets 2  Calcium with vitamin D 1 biotin  I started out with chewable Flintstones but couldn't stand the way they tasted so as soon as I could have solid food, I switched to the One A Day Women's multi vitamin.  I haven't had any issues swallowing them (knock on wood!!).   Like Stacy, I sometimes miss a calcium or an iron tablet but my one major New Year's resolution is to get back on track and take EVERYTHING everyday that I am supposed to.

I just left the hospital yesterday but my surgeon said it was fine for me to take my Keppra (for seizure disorder) whole and also the Nexium (to prevent reflux). My vitamin, calcium, iron, and B12 are chewables. Teresa
