Why do bariatric patients take calcium citrate?

Many bariatric programs recommend calcium citrate after sleeve or bypass surgery because it absorbs well with less stomach acid. Ask your surgical team which form and daily amount they want you on.

Are BariatricPal calcium chews sugar free?

Yes. Every flavor of the BariatricPal Calcium Citrate Soft Chews is sugar free, and the chews are 500 mg calcium citrate with added probiotics.

When can I start calcium chews after surgery?

Your surgeon or dietitian sets the start date and dose. Soft chews are often easier than large tablets in the weeks after surgery.
