Compass Chewable Tablets

Who are ELAN Compass chewable tablets for?

The Compass chewable tablets are specially designed for people who have undergone gastric bypass . It is a high-quality dietary supplement to meet the daily requirement of vitamins and minerals after gastric bypass.

What are the consequences of gastric bypass surgery?

A gastric bypass involves reducing the size of your stomach and diverting or bypassing part of the intestine. As a result, you can eat less and your body can absorb fewer nutrients. The surgery is the beginning of a new life and a step towards a healthier lifestyle. Without additional supplements, your body won’t get enough nutrients to keep you fit. The Compass chewable tablets ensure that you get the necessary vitamins and minerals in the right dosage every day.

What are the benefits of ELAN Compass chewable tablets?

The Compass chewable tablets have a fresh and delicious strawberry taste. For the good taste, there is no iron in the chewable tablets. After consultation with your doctor or therapist, you should therefore also take a Ferro-Vital tablet daily with the Compass chewable tablet.

Please note that the Ferro-Vital swallowing tablets are only available for orders of Compass chewable tablets incl. Iron are included.

The composition of the Compass chewable tablets is based on the latest scientific research to meet your daily needs as accurately as possible and ensure the best possible individual dosage. The ingredients in the Compass chewable tablets are natural and easily absorbed by the body. Since you must continue to take a WLS (“Weight Loss Surgery”) supplement daily after your gastric bypass for life in order not to develop vitamin and/or mineral deficiencies, ELAN pays great attention to the tolerability of its products.

What is the recommended dosage and the right time to take ELAN Compass chewable tablets?

Take 1 Compass chewable tablet (and 1 Ferro-Vital swallowable tablet) per day, preferably before or during dinner. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Excessive consumption can have a laxative effect. The Compass chewable tablet can be taken at the same time as the Ferro-Vital oral tablet.

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. One Compass chewable tablet exceeds the recommended daily allowance of a number of vitamins and minerals for an adult. Therefore, you should only take the Compass chewable tablets on the advice of your doctor or therapist. In case of overdose, please consult your doctor.

The Compass chewable tablets now have an improved composition: the dosage of vitamin D3 has been increased from 25 mcg to 75 mcg, as recent scientific research has shown that vitamin D3 deficiency is still relatively common after bariatric surgery.

If you forget to take your Compass chewable tablet (and/or Ferro-Vital oral tablet) in one day, it is not a tragedy as long as it does not occur regularly. You can take the Compass chewable tablet (and/or the Ferro-Vital swallowing tablet) as usual the following day and do not have to make up for the missed daily dose.

Important (only applies when taking the Ferro-Vital oral tablet): If you are also taking the Calcium Vital Swallow Tablets or the Calcium Chew Chewable Tablets, take them at a different time than your Ferro Vital Swallow Tablet together with your Compass Chewable Tablet, as calcium inhibits the absorption of iron. You should wait at least 2 hours between taking the Calcium Vital Swallow Tablet/Calcium Chew Chewable Tablet and the Ferro Vital Swallowable Tablet together with the Compass Chewable Tablet, so that your body has enough time to properly absorb the iron contained in the Ferro Vital Swallowable Tablet.
