Safe to take vitamin tablets everyday?
Hi Doctor,
I am 60 year old female, my daughter's (one is 30 year old, other is 26 year), we all take vitamin tablet once everyday (A to Z tablet), without any doctor's recommendations.
Is it safe to intake this tablet everyday or are these treated as steroids, we are concerned about this due to black fungus situation.
My elder daughter (30 year old) take Vitamin D every month as recommended by doctor earlier due to Vitamin D deficiency. So please comment if this is also safe regarding the same concern.
THANK YOU

Vitamins are not steroids so worries about that...
I would suggest you to take multivitamins continously for 3 months and then give a gap for a few months...
For Vit D3 the level has to be checked at regular intervals otherwise there is chance of toxicity
Next Steps
Please upload previous report mentioning the Vit D3 level and the duration of supplementation taken
