Frequently Asked Questions About Multivitamins
Do multivitamins make you gain weight?
No, multivitamins do not directly cause weight gain. A typical tablet or capsule adds very little energy; changes in body weight are more closely related to overall food intake and activity than to taking a multivitamin.
Can multivitamins prevent colds?
No, multivitamins are not a reliable way to prevent colds. Correcting a vitamin deficiency matters, but research has not established that taking a multivitamin protects well-nourished people from catching a cold.
Should you take multivitamins every day?
Not necessarily; many people do not need a daily multivitamin. If you take one, follow the serving directions and avoid doubling up with other supplements that contain the same vitamins or minerals.
Is it better to take multivitamins with food?
Usually, yes. Taking multivitamins with a meal can reduce nausea or stomach discomfort, and dietary fat can help the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Follow the directions for your particular product.
What time of day should you take multivitamins?
There is no single best time for everyone to take multivitamins. Choose a time you can stick to; if a product makes you feel unsettled or alert, taking it earlier in the day may suit you better.
What side effects can multivitamins cause?
Multivitamins can cause nausea, stomach discomfort, or constipation in some people. Products containing iron may worsen constipation, while excessive amounts of certain vitamins can cause more serious effects.
Can you take too many multivitamins?
Yes, taking too many multivitamins can be harmful. Excess amounts of fat-soluble vitamins such as A and D, or minerals such as iron, can build up or cause toxicity; never exceed the product’s recommended serving.
Do multivitamins interact with prescription medicines?
Yes, some do. Vitamin K can affect warfarin, while iron or calcium can interfere with the absorption of certain antibiotics and thyroid medicines. Tell your doctor or pharmacist which multivitamin you take.
Are multivitamins safe during pregnancy?
Some multivitamins are made specifically for pregnancy, but ordinary adult formulas may not have the right amounts. Products with high amounts of preformed vitamin A, or retinol, may be unsuitable during pregnancy.
How should you store multivitamins, and do they expire?
Store multivitamins in their original container in a cool, dry place, away from children. After the expiration date, the vitamins may be less potent, so replace the product rather than relying on it.

What is Multivitamins?
Multivitamins are supplements that combine several vitamins and minerals in one product. They commonly come as tablets or capsules, though some are chewable; the ingredients and amounts vary by product. They are intended to complement meals, not serve as a food or a substitute for a varied diet.
People may take them with breakfast or another meal, usually with water, following the directions on the label. Tablets and capsules tend to have little taste, while chewable versions may be flavoured. The nutrition table’s carbohydrate figure is given per 100 g, whereas a typical serving is much smaller, so it does not describe the usual amount consumed particularly well. Check the label for serving directions, and choose a format that fits easily into your routine.
