Barb, I started my chewable vitamin the day after surgery. Just make sure to chew it down to nothing. Might want to call your doc to make sure, but I have had no problems with mine. Cheryl, Lap RNY 6-2-03, -52 lbs

Usually your doctor has a timetable on when to start your vits. and such. So, I would check with him.

I started my chewable vitamins the day I got home. I actualy sucked on it and let it desolve in my mouth insead of chewing it up. For some strange reason, it helped with head hunger. Best of luck!

I was given my first chewable Flintstones in the hospital the day after surgery.
