Your doctor didn't give you dosages?
Every doctor is different here is what I am on (and basically except the vit D has been what I've been on since surgery)
Centrum adult: one tab am one tab pm
b12 sublingual 1000mcg/day
b1 100mg/day
Folic Acid 1600 (this was ok'd or me per my request due to wanting to conceive...)
Calcium Citrate + D: 1000-1200mg/day in divided doses. Not to be taken within an hour or two of any vitamin containing iron
Vitamin D: Sublingual 10,000iu daily
I"m also on synthroid or hypothyroidism which I"m going back and forth with dosages because we can't seem to normalize my labs. Which throws a bit of loop in it for me because A) you have to take it on an empty stomach B) You can't eat an hour afterwards, and you can't have anything containing vit C with it. Sooooo...here's my rough schedule: (my times are weird cause of night shift)
Wake up 4:30PM: Synthroid
6:30PM: B1, b12, centrum, folic acid
10PM(ish) First dose of calcium w/ sublingual vit D
2AM(ish) Second dose of calcium
Before bed: Second Centrum
Oh - and the calcium makes me constipated so I take either colace with it, or lately, miralax every other day

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
