Question: What if I take a whole bottle of multivitamins at once, can you overdose on them!?
Answers:
Hi kid!. You received a lot of 'interesting' answers to your question!. I feel compelled to respond (though I usually do not address these types of 'hypothetical' questions)!.

The most likely outcome to a one-time massive dose of vitamins/minerals would be massive diarrhea!. The high intake of vitamin C and minerals would induce an extreme osmotic effect in your gut, creating the massive diarrhea!.

A few vitamins in very high doses, taken for long periods of time (not just one massive dose), can cause toxicity!. Vitamin A and Vitamin D have this potential!.

I would not recommend overdose on anything!. If you are considering harming yourself via overdose or any other means please go to an emergency room or call 911 immediatly!.
To answer your question, if there is iron in the vitamin then yes overdosing can be dangerous!. Every vitamin has different supplements in them so it is hard to say what other supplements are in the vitamins you are talking about and what effect an overdose of them would have!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't know but the iron will probably make you crap your pants!. What are you trying to accomplish here!? Are you suicidal or are you looking for a super quick boost in health!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
