I feel really, really sick if I take vitamins on an empty stomach, now. Makes me really woozy and nauseated. So now I take the non-chewables a with a few bites of thick Greek yogurt or pudding to coat them on the way down. That also kind of "incorporates" them into breakfast so that I don't have to play the waiting game between eating breakfast and then swallowing them with water, later.
