pills post-op
Not complaining but has anyone noticed that post-op pills are gigantic?
Just got home for the doctor and am thankfully off of chewables. Multi...fine no probs there. Actigal..not too big and can do. Now the iron and calcium citrate...those things are horse pills.
To anyone who has problems with large pills, how did ya do it?
I know I am going to have to cut them in half but they will still be large and now add weird shaped. I am also afraid of them getting stuck. So any advice will help.

I use the petite calcium citrate pills. They also make them in chewables and liquid form.

Take several pills over a few minutes if you need to. I went back to taking four dozen pills a day less than 24hrs after my rny. Take it slowly and you'll be fine.

Don't pay the expense of Liquid Vitamins...The Vitamins of today are VERY soluable, even the fat soluable ones break down in liquid a bit. Just crush or pulverize your pills and put them in the SF Liquid of your choice>>>I use SF Kool Aide, Light Hawaiian Punch or Crystal Light...
