OK  I need a chewable or liquid I can stand in the multi vitamin area.  I have tried Flintstones, Centrum, Celebrate, and yuck to all.  Also need a calcium I can tolerate in a 600mg.  Any and all ideas welcome.  I am forcing them but need to change. Thanks for the help.

Have you tried Bariatric Advantage calciums?  I like them best of all - specially the cinnamon flavor.  Not chalky.  

For multis, I do take centrum (regular, not senior) and have gotten used to the taste.  But try the centrum seniors and see what you think - they're berry flavored.  They also have a liquid (but I think it's sweetened with aspartame which I'm allergic to).

I'd also suggest trying your local GNC or Vitamin Shoppe - both have very good return policies and if you don't like something they will take it back.  They may be able to make some good recommendations, as well.

Good luck!

First thing:  FOLLOW YOU DOCTOR'S ORDERS

Next:   Try Citrical Caltrate Petites---very much easier to swallow..... again--follow Your doctor's orders. You can split the dose over the corse of the day.....read the label carefully  and/or folloe dr./NUT instructions.

Flintstones( I take Plus Iron) are easier than some others---try chewing and sipping water or a low sugar juice.....as long as your stomach is relatively empty, I can't imagine how it would be bad..... (I'm not a doctor, but..)

My experience is that i've never had a problem following this regime....
