Is it ok to take centrum with lutein and nexium in the same day? i heard that nexium will cause magnesium & vit b deficiencies but it has a elimination half life of 1-1.5 hours so if i take nexium before breakfest and take centrum at another time?

Nexium: Nexium type medications cause vit B12 deficiency by depleting your stomach of acid impairing the absorption of vit B12. Taking the sublingual(melts under the tongue) form of vitamin B12 prevents the deficiency. Taking a magnesium supplement by mouth recommended by your pharmacist can maintain normal levels. This is especially important if you're prone to cardiac arrhythmias.
