Today was my first day taking the Women's One A Day multivitamin, everyone was telling me I should really be taking one so I did. Now I was looking for anyone who has taken and was wondering should I feel extremely nauseous....I took it as directed with a meal (my breakfast) and I honestly feel very very sick....is this normal?

    I felt really sick when I first started taking one too. I think the feeling it went away within a week. I've been taking them everyday for two months now and every now and then I get that nauseous feeling but it never lasts very long

    I have gotten sick off of vitamins in the past. maybe you should try a children's vitamin to start,

    I wouldn't take ANYTHING that made me feel sick! I'd stop taking it and take someother multivitamin. If you are looking to boost your metabolism, start working out if you haven't already. I had my metabolism professionally tested and mine is about as high as you can get it and it hasn't made me lose weight any faster than anyone else. All it has meant is I get to eat more calories and that I'm hungry more often. If you want the benefit of a multivitamin than take one, but don't take something that makes you sick! Gee-whiz!

    I don't... maybe you should take it at night when you go to bed? When I was pregnant I had to take my prenatal vitamins at bed time because they made me so nauseous.

    I'm taking the same vitamin every morning and at first it made me really queasy, too. I've been on them now for about a month and that awful sensation has gone away, but I'm also careful to take it after I've eaten breakfast.

    Yeah, I agree, I always take my mulitvitamin after I've eaten my whole breakfast. It helps.

    Mine made me sick too! At first I was thought I was pg again. That would have put me in a looney bin!

    I had the same problem, I switched to the One A Day VitaCrave Gummies vitamins - I have no trouble taking those. And I love the flavor!!!! :smile:

    I get that too. I have to make sure I eat with it and drink TOnS of water. My prenatal vitamins used to make me sick too, I used to take them at night and it didn't bother me so much.
