Vitimins and minerals post op

Thanks. 

I bought centrum senior 50plus. Been taking that for the last couple months. Just to get used to taking it. I know after surgery it will be twice a day. I

I was thinking of taking 1 in the morning and 1 before I go to bed. Would that's work? Cause I feel it probably be the most consistent 

That is when I used to take my multivitamins then took my first dose of calcium 2 hours after the first multi.  Can't take the two together and have to take calcium 2 hours from any other vitamin/mineral.

Hiya,

Please note that the calcium needs to be split into 3 servings of 500 to 600 mg each.  Our bodies do not absorb it all at the same time so you need to space them out during the day.  I take a senior multivitamin (no iron) so I supplement the iron separately.  Here is my plan each day:

7 a.m. - 1 multi, 1 B12 sublingual, 2 calcium citrate with Vit D

10 a.m. - 1 iron (Feramax) - 1 vitamin C (not necessary)

1 p.m. - 2 calcium citrate with Vit D

5 p.m. - 1 multi, 2 calcium citrate with Vit D

8 p.m. - 1 iron (Feramax)

I purchase all my vitamins at Costco....WAY CHEAPER.

Judy, which brand of senior vitamin has no iron in it?  I have been looking for one for years and they all have a bit of iron.

The Kirkland brand.   

Thank you.  I will have to look for them again next time I go to Costco.

Hi Tracey,  Look for this label.....
