Do any of these vitamins interact?!
Question: I am currently taking:
Vitamin B (3 capsules of 50 mg), a Vegetarian based multivitamin and Fish Oil (3 capsules of 1000 mg) in the morning.
Three times a day I am taking 125 milligrams for grapefruit seed extract (for dermatitis) and in the evening 2 capsules of Evening primrose (500 mg - for acne and dermatitis).
Do any of these interact with each other?

zinc and calcium compete for absorption (same path), shouldn't be taken together in a multi -most multis run that risk. You may want to consider deciding what you need in the multi and taking them separately.
GSE - make sure you take it away from any probiotics or enzymes (2 hours apart), which you should be taking if you are on a maintenance dose of GSE. It is also antibacterial and will kill of healthy bacteria just like antibiotics will - but without some of the other nasty problems, so keep the good bacteria replenished. It is also great for yeast control.
The only thing is the grapefruit seed extract. Grapefruit interacts with just about any vitamin/medication because it is processed by the CYP450 in the liver and changes Ph of the intestines for absorption. Besides that the rest is ok. But it depends on what is in the multivitamin. you need to list that out.
