I would like to take vitamin supplements, but am not sure if it is safe to do so when taking other prescribed medications. Can anyone in the community advise?

    Hi I am not sure anyone needs vitamin supplements unless you are low in any of them. But if you must just be aware that taking too many can be dangerous. For example high doses of vitamin D can lead to a fatty liver. Too much vitamin C can also be dangerous.

    If you are in the UK why not ask your pharmacist if they will interfere with any of your prescribed meds? They are the experts on drugs after all. Or ask your doctor. x
