Direct answer: A Roux-en-Y plan usually combines a bariatric multivitamin, divided calcium, and any additional iron, B12, vitamin D, or other nutrients needed to reach procedure-specific targets.
Build the plan from totals
- Add the amounts from every product before deciding whether a target is covered.
- Keep calcium and iron apart as directed.
- Use the prescribed B12 route and adjust vitamin D to laboratory results.
- Review thiamine urgently when vomiting or poor intake persists.
What to do next
The complete regimen may use one combined product plus separate supplements; every nutrient does not require its own bottle.
For procedure-specific supplement amounts, use the ASMBS guideline summary and compare the complete regimen with the plan from the bariatric surgeon or registered dietitian.
