No: Accidentally taking double doses of gummy multivitamins once in a while, such as a couple times a month, is not a problem. No worries.

Not to worry: While most multiple vitamin formulations are designed to provide most of the Recommended Daily Allowances of vitamins for one day, doubling up occasionally will have no effect. Some of the vitamins are water soluble and any excess will be voided in urine. One day's extra amount will not be a problem for the fat soluble ones. This was probably just a mistake, but the gummies taste pretty good, no?
