That's actually a touch question lol. Every program seems to have different requirements for the vitamins. If you are looking for one muli-vitamin to take the place of the iron/calcium/vitamin d/etc.... That will not exist. Most multivitamins will not have both iron and calcium in them and if they do, it actually doesn't work. Calcium and Iron cannot be taken within 2 hours of each other because the blood will not absorb them both at the same time. Also you can only absorb 500 mg of calcium at once so depending on what your dr requires, you may need to take that multiple times a day. I have seen people post that they only need to take one multi-vitamin a day while others like me have to do the mulit, 3 calciums, 2 iron, B1, B12, and vitamin D. Like I said, it all depends on your dr and what they require. You can always do a search in the forums for vitamins to find out peoples recommendations for their vitamin brands

I just started taking Ultra Solo with Iron from Bariatric Advantage. It contains the multi vite, B12, B50 complex and some Biotin.
It is convenient to have them all in one pill but the smell is horrible and I have to take it with a bit of food otherwise I will belch it.
On top of that I take Citracal 3x a day and two pills at a time(6 total pills). I just ordered the Bariatric calcium chews and they are ok, I got the fruit flavored. I took me a few days to get used to them. I am taking that once a day in place of one of the Citracal.
I am still looking to other brands to see if I can replace the multi vite with something that hopefully might taste a little better.

Every plan is different. I am able to do patches - LOVE them, until I developed an allergic reaction to the glue (that is just my sensitive skin tho). I take centrum chewables now. I was trying some regular caplets, and they just sit too heavy for my liking. I know a lot of people that do just take regular ones though.
