I contacted my sister in law which spend most of her life on medication and she said I need a quite a few things. as I was 17 when I had my first baby basically I had a baby each year for 4 years. I llost my strength my memory im always tired dont feel anything for life and I asked the pharmacist to help me out and he gave me a pill bottle called Multivit and there is small sugar coated tablets of 100 in. First day I drank 4 second second day another 4 and currently day 3 im suffering from such bad stomach pains only last a minute or so but its intense. Im over weight and I don't eat during morning or afternoon just in evenings but I live on coffee maybe 15 cups a day which contains 4 sugar each. my diet when I do eat are very poor I just don't know what to eat or drink plus I got borehole water so water drinking not even a option please assist with advice
i tried different types of these mutli vitamins, i stopped taking one a day for a year and thought i buy it again and it is just giving me soo much pain under the rib, the stomach.
I took different brands and not a problem. It is these one a day!
he cannot take vitamins on empty stomach
Except for those of us who need certain supplements - like Vitamin D - which is not found in foods...or people who in spite of eating well need supplements. I envy you if you're lucky enough to not need any sort of supplements in your life and are getting everything you need from your diet.
I would think the 15 cups of coffe us doing more damage than the vitamins. Start your day with protein ( eggs or greek yogurt). By not eating and pouring coffee into an empty stomach you are a a set up for serious stomach issues.
I have the same EXACT issue with multivitamins. I have a sensitive galbladder and the doctor said it becomes inflammed everytime I take a vitamin. The pain stops once I stop with the vitamins. Have him lay off the One a Day and consult his doctor.
Don't take a vitamin on an empty stomach, especially one that contains iron. Iron is brutal on an empty stomach and very hard to digest. Switch to a multi without iron and make sure you get enough iron naturally in your diet instead.
The pill should be recalled and redesigned if the human body cannot digest something we are ingesting to absorb nutrients I have a problem with the centrum one a day stomach pain for an hour then I am fine after that but still it is BS not taking centrum anymore also I tried the dollar general knock off centrum and it did the same thing I've never had a problem taking nature made products from Safeway or rite aid
For a few weeks I've had this unexplainable stomach pain at night, I eat fresh foods and nothing changed in my diet but for some reason this was happening on occasion and at random. I first thought it was some sort of diarrhea pains, then I suspected food poisoning, then I thought it was eggs from the neighbor. Finally tonight it dawned on me that I'd just taken a multivitamin and I looked it up. Not only is this seemingly common but I'm taking One A Day women's but it looks like a lot of that same brand causing issues. I'm just going to try to drink water to flush it out now and never take it again this is SO painful and I just want to sleep :(
me too
I have this same problem and it's same product
I have this same problem and it's same product
I didn't think the multivit was doing it (Costco) but this is the third time ( although I will say the vitamins bottle may be ? a year old ( shelf life) . In any case the stomach pain all 3 times was for about an hour. I eat well so no more multivit for me. Thanks to all for your input
I took Centrum for men over 50. It would periodically cause stomach pain that would begin and quickly advance to extreme discomfort. As time went along they became more frequent. Fatty foods like bacon, sausage, pork were key causes, but not always. Since discontinuing the Centrum I have had no stomach pains. One relief that worked, was to take 3 or 4 antacid tablets at the onset of the pain. Taken promptly, it would effectively stop the pain from intensifying and quickly give me complete relief. Waiting until the pain was extreme before taking the antacids would prolong the relief, but I did get relief.
Hope this is helpful for fellow sufferers. I am searching for a better vitamin and will post again if I come across one.

Same problem here after taking centrum i get a major stomach pain and the last time it was vomiting
I had my gall bladder taken put back in October, and the multivitamin (women's Alive Energy) is causing me pain under my right rib cage and also at the top of my stomach. I am urinating a lot as well. I'm just going to stop taking them.
This just happened to me! I've been taking one a day for women and I am so bloated I look pregnant. I also have horrible pain like as if I got hit in the sternum type pain but over my pancreas. I need a multi vitamin. My thyroid is low and I have auto immune disease. I have 0 energy.
