Recently I purchased Opurity multivitamins through Unjury, has anyone else on this site used them before and if so how were your labs?

I use them. I'm going on 2 years post-op, and my labs have been great. I do take additional calcium.

They're ok, but they are missing a couple of things, like copper. The calcium is from carbonate, so you may absorb none of it. The calcium in multi tablets is there primarily as a binder to glue the tablet together.

You'll almost certainly need extra B12, D, iron, and calcium, but that's true of any multi.

Thanks!  Currently I'm already taking B12 and B1; so now I know to add D, calcium and Iron

I also bought them, but had to switch to another.  I couldn't get them down!  They are WAY too citrus-y for me - and they are so big it feels like chewing them was never ending.  I did not like them at all.  I ended up getting Celebrate multis along with their calcium chews (awesome) and Vitamin D dissolving tabs (awesome as well).  I have yet to find a good iron supplement.  I was taking IroSpan prior to surgery due to a severe deficiency (not anemic, just severely Iron deficient due to dumping issues caused by my now-removed gall bladder).  The Vit D tabs are only 5000IU daily - preop I was taking 50000 IU weekly, so this is a step down, but for right now it will have to suffice.
