Can I crush, split or chew my vitamins?Updated an hour ago

Good question! We always recommend taking your vitamins the way they're made to be taken, but here's what you can do if swallowing is hard:

  • Splitting: it's fine to cut a tablet and take it in 2 or 3 pieces.
  • Crushing: crushing shouldn't be a problem either, but if you'd rather not swallow a tablet at all, our Just One Chewable is an easier option. Our Watermelon Complete Powder is another one, but it isn't available at the moment.
  • Calcium: our BariBurst Calcium Chews are soft chews, so there's nothing to swallow whole.

Your bariatric team may have specific advice for you, so please follow it. Questions? Message us anytime!
