My NUT told me not to use the gummies as they don't give as much vitamins as the chewables or liquid do.

 Bayer makes an adult gummie vit called " Fruit-Essentials"  I don't know if it has everything we need after surgery..maybe a vet could verify?

my nut said no to gummys because they don't have  the 18gms of iron you need.  Luckily Flintsones is the only vitamin i have ever been able to take.

 My NUT said do not use gummy vitamins because our system does not absorb them as well. I have two flntstone vitamins a day and have never bothered me yet. Good luck to you!

 Compare what's in a gummy vit and what is in a "complete" vitamin. It should answer your question :)

I use Vitafusion Multi Vites Gummy Vitamins and the Vitafusion Vitamin D Gummy Vitamins. I get my B from a sublingual. My labs were great at 6 months all for low D levels hence the extra vitamin D vitamin.
