Is there a difference between the way capsule and tablet vitamins are absorbed for a gastric bypass patient?

RD asked:


I realize that people who undergo gastric bypass surgery need more vitamins like B-12, possibly Iron, B-1 or even Calcium, but when choosing a vitamin, does the form need to be taken into consideration, since absorption is different in a bariatric patient?
