Buying vitamins in montreal

Hello,

I will be having my surgery (ds) in august and wanted to checkout where to buy vitamins. I would be interested in knowing where you guys buy your vits.

Thanks,

Hi,
I just get mine from Jean Coutu but I only take 1 multi-vitamin a day. I know you DS patients need a bit more so maybe Joel can chime in as the only DS patient on our board.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Hi!,

I don't know  what Dr Gagner recommands, but DSers fron Hopital Laval usually take one multivit (namely Centrum forte), calciun carbonate, ferrous sulfate and vitamins A & D. Daily dosage varies according to blood tests. I think most people get their meds at their local pharmacy. Most supplements are  covered by insurance automatically or necessitate a written note from your doc to be sent to the insurance company. Some people prefer "specialty products" from Bariatric choice or other on-line shops, but there's no absolute need to buy that stuff...

Hope it helps!
