Do they make anybody else sick? Doesnt matter if I take them with food, without food, with drinks, without drink,.....ten minutes after I take, I throw up. Then Im fine.
Why??

Yes--it's because they contain iron and zinc. If it doesn't help taking them with food, I really don't know what to tell you. Perhaps get those kids vitamins? The gummie ones? Or you could just eat other foods that have iron/zinc in them to get your daily dosage.




or maybe u need to make sure ur stomach is full with something solid like something w carbs..if u barely eat anything before taking vitamins theres a good chance ur going to vomit..I will eat my meal first and then take my supplements..



Yeah Im doing a search about this now (guess i shoulda done that before posting, sorry guys. was kinda curious though if any of you ladies had this problem.)
Ill try again on a full full stomach. If not, ill go to flinstones gummies like my kids. LOL
Funny my prenatal pills didnt make me feel sick.
How about taking them at night before you go to bed? I get sick if I can take anything in the morning, but if I take them right before bed (like literally as I'm sliding under the covers), I'm fine.



Hmm maybe ^ Just don't wanna throw up n my man LOL
WOW. Never heard that before. I've used Womens one a day active metabolism and I can't go a day without them. Have you tried Centrum? They are good as well.
^Pretty much any vitamin that has heavy metals in it will make some people sick. I.e. iron, zinc, etc.





They make my stomach feel disgusting too ( nausea big time ). I can split them and take half at lunch and half at dinner though. I just do the flintstones vitamins that are for kids and its probably not enough .... but they don't make me feel gross.




Yeah I have to make sure I'm pretty full in order to not feel like vomiting or being all shakey.
This looks like something worth trying: http://www.amazon.com/One-Day-Essent...9637703&sr=1-2
it also could be that your body just doesn't like cheap vitamins. There must be something in every drugstore brand vitamin that my body doesn't like, because I will throw them up within 5 minutes of taking them. I started taking a womens vitamin by the company super nutrition when I was 25, and my life changed. I looked and felt better, and I never threw them up. They're a little pricey, but worth it. The whole foods every woman brand is good too.
Yes they make me feel sick too! Also had a girlfriend who experienced the same thing. Not sure why it happens but I just quit taking them. I'm taking a womens vitamin by nature made (from safeway) now and it's just fineI'd just switch to something else.

if you are not lactose intolerant, i would suggest taking them with a glass of milk. i take the one a days and i throw up from them if i don't drink milk with them and eating doesn't always help either (just end up with breakfast in toilet, uggh). you could also try eating something light like yogurt with your vitamin...just a couple ideas..if none of that works, i would probably try switching to the flinstones vitamin like one of the other girls mentioned here (at least those ones are flavored)





It's the iron. It's -extremely- common. That's why it says "take with food" on the bottle. Make sure you're taking it with a MEAL not a banana or some yogurt.
I take them every day and unless my stomach is full of something heavy-ish (breads/pasta/meat/etc) I'll get sick.
I took One A Day Women's vitmains for years without a problem, even on an empty stomach. Every body is different though! If the eating a full meal then taking the vitamin after doesn't work, I would try another name brand from GNC or a nutrition store.
yes, they make me toss-ma-cookies! i just take the Vita-Craves gummies for adults.
