A member asked:
Are there any negative effects of taking high doses of b12 and multi-b on a daily basis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Agree with Dr. N. B12 is not likely to cause problem but there are other elements in multivitamins that if taken in excess will cause damage. It applies to fat soluble vitamins like vitamin A and vitamin D. If you must take these as recommended by your doctor. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex,. Wish you good health!
