Stop them: Vitamin c can be very irritating to the stomach, especially if not take as the buffered form (i.E calcium ascorbate). The other option is other ingredients and the quality of the supplement. Speak to your doctor or a knowledgeable person at a local health food store to find a quality, buffered form of vitamin c.

Stop taking: If a supplement is making you sick and the vitamin is easily available in foods such as oranges, grapefruits, kiwis, and broccoli, then switch to natural forms and skip the pills.
