I have the same question. I don't like the chewable ones and the others I have bought have been horse pill. I have a hard time swallowing them even when cut in half. I hope someone comes up with an answer.

I hated swallowing mulitple pills, small and large, for my daily supplements. I've been using some liquid vitamins for 11 months now. My lab results are posted on my profile page, to show how well they work. Brands are mentioned there too. I currently take a large calcium tablet 6 times daily, and I hate that. Next time I get calcium citrate, I'll make sure I can see the tablet size before I buy them. DAVE

Bariatric Advantage at 1-800-898-6888 has small vitamin pills. You have to take 6 a day total but they are easy to swallow. They are the best I have found so far. It is around $20 for a months supply but they ship free if you get set up on autodelivery. Hope this helps. Check them out at Bariatric Advantage.com. Phyllis

I switched to a liquid vitamin that has 175 vitamins, minerals, herbs and antioxidants. One ounce a day is all you need and it doesn't contain sugar, calories, carbs or caffeine. Because it is liquid it has up to a 98% absorption in the first 3 minutes. Passion4Life Liquid Vitamins is the name. If you have any questions about them feel free to email me: [email protected] or you can go to passion4lifevitamins.com/charlenelewis

CENTRUM makes a chewable multi-vitamin (for adults) and you only need to take 1 a day. I found it right on the shelf at Walgreens, or you can order it online at walgreens.com.

No such thing as a small multivitamin! LOL If it's a good vitamin and has all the right stuff, it's got to have bulk...But hard tablets are "hard" to dissolve in the RNY pouch (no stomach acid) Plus the vits sit in the pouch and some of the vitamins are very harsh and acidy ....like vit c and iron...You absorb chewables and liquids much easier...but I'm so with you on the flavor...YUCK! The reason I stopped taking my adult chewable daily...I could not stomach the flavor...So I cut back to about once a week...Yep...that landed me flat on my arse with vitamin deficiencies at 4 years out...Now...I am more than happy to chomp down my Centrum chewable...TraderJoe's also has a chewable with an awesome taste...but it doesn't have Vit K...so I only take that one when I just cannot bare the thought of that vitamin flavor...I suggest that you find a capsule that has powder vits inside for easier absorption...I'm currently looking for one myself....I take a ton of vits due to that little(HUGE) mistake I made 6 months ago...so I have had to learn to swallow big capsules and chew yucky vitamins...After you realise you almost killed yourself over something sooooo easy to avoid...you just do what you gotta do...Good luck...

I found a great multi-vitamin with iron and the pills are extremely small. It is actually the Walgreens brand vitamin. The bottle is brown with a ailver and red label with $3.99 at the top. My MD has actually started to recommend these after I brought these to his attention. Good luck, Jackie

Best tasting "liquid" vitamin/mineral and the most potent is VEMMA. Go to www.TrySomeVemma.com

I had RNY in March and I take P4L liquid -- tried several before finding passion4life liquid - one ounce per day and it's all inclusive. My hair stopped falling out and I feel so good on it, plus it tastes good! www.passion4lifevitamins.com/tarra
