vitamins question for all?!?!

Liquid gel pills or hard solid pills?!?!....which is best?...ive been taking liquid gel vitamins and are happy with them but the prescription strength ones are more expensive....and i wonder if i can digest the solid prenatal vitamins or not??

Im currently rx'd Concept OB.  I seem to be taking it well.

 I have been taking a walmart brand solid prenatal and they are working well :) levels have been fine through out :)

Wait, did you have RNY?  Because I had the understanding that we don't digest the gel pills (the ones with liquid inside or have the plastic coating (caplets?)).  I would check with your Bariatric Surgeon to make sure!  Capsules are good and I believe the solid prenatal would be good as well!  Also, have a full panel of blood taken to check all your levels......you may find, you don't need a prenatal vitamin.....that your current multi with some extra added vitamins might be enough (I take a complete multi, B-12, D3, calcuim citrate and folic acid every day, along with an iron supplement every other day)!

What surgery did you have?  As an RNYer, my understanding is that we don't do well with softgels because our system can't break down that outer shell.  I've been taking solid vits and my levels have been good so far...though I just had blood drawn again yesterday.
