Expert Q&A

I am 54 years old and take several vitamins daily that include Centrum Silver, vitamin E, folic acid, vitamin C, fish oil, calcium and biotin. Is this safe?
All of those vitamins can be taken together. However, you may be doubling up on the folic acid since Centrum Silver already has 400 mcg. Many people do need more than the recommended 400 mcg for various nutritional or medical issues."
