Can't find the regular vitamins with the chocolate flavoring and without calcium. ## This website does not manufacture, nor sell any products of any type, it is an information only website. The company that manufactures Viactiv has a website at viactiv.com, which lists a phone number to contact them as 877-VIACTIV. Thus, I'd suggest calling them to ask if they've discontinued it, if there's just a shipping delay or if your stores have just stopped carrying it. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am 20. does evion vitamin e capsules have side effects ?? how to take this .. and for how much time period ?? ## It is just a nutritional supplement, so it has not been tested for side effects, as is done with actual medications. There aren't even any real anecdotal reports to use and provide you with information, because this one is so benign. As to how to take it, you should follow the instructions on the packaging and, unless your doctor has told you otherwise, there is no specific time period of anything to give you. There is also no age limit for a vitamin, they can be beneficial to everyone, but the amounts and specific ones needed may vary due to many different factors. Are there any other questions or concerns?

She was about 200lb and lost about 90 pounds at first it was only inches and then it was the pounds that she was taking out now she looks great ....and continues taking them ## i heard you can die ## The English name for this would be Easy FIgure, it's a natural supplement that is claimed to help with weight loss. The ingredients are only listed as being Flax Seed, Oats, Wheat Bran, Almond Hulls, Grapefruit and VItamin E. So, what it really does is improve your fiber intake, more than anything else. From that ingredient list, I don't see anything that would cause someone to die, unless they were severely allergic to one of the ingredients. However, your friend lost a great amount of weight and it's n...

I have been suffering from vertigo (BPPV) for a year now. I have been prescribed Meoxon Plus, one tablet a day for 20 days. Will this medication improve the circulation in my brain and reduce the frequency of vertigo attacks? I would appreciate your advice. Should I continue taking this medication indefinitely? ## HI, Vedanth! Sorry about the BPPV, that can be very miserable. How are you feeling today? Meaxon Plus is just a nutritional supplement that contains a complex of Vitamins, so there is no guarantee that it's going to help with anything. It's basically harmless to try, if your doctor has said it's safe for you to take it, but it's not an actual medication that's proven to treat anything.

How are you feeling? With those symptoms, you need to see a doctor, rather than try to self-treat. The trouble breathing could be due to a serious medical issue that could put your life in danger and that isn't a risk you should take.

Please advise use of the mentioned tablets with its side effects. ## what are the uses of BTN ultra tabletsn and how to use it. ## Based on my research, BTN ultra contains vitamin supplements that may be helpful in supporting stronger hair and nails. I haven't come across any dosing information or a list of the actual ingredients, but when it comes to vitamins you generally do not have to worry about side effects unless you're taking a lot more than your body needs at any given moment. Multivitamin supplements are usually only recommended when there is a deficiency or lack of certain nutrients in one's own diet. However, if taken in excess, some vitamins can be toxic and exhibit side effects. A great way to avoid this is to get most of your vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, ...

HOW TO TAKE D-SHINE WITH WATER OR MILK? ANY SIDE EFFECTS ## Hi neena, Based on your description, I'm not finding any specific details on "how to take" D-Shine tablets. But I do know that the active ingredient Cholecalciferol, is simply Vitamin D3; which can be taken with any sort of beverage. This I know from personal experience taking similar supplements. As far as side effects go, taking "too much" Vitamin D can make the intestines absorb too much calcium. This, in turn, may cause high levels of calcium in the blood. High blood calcium can lead to: -Calcium deposits in soft tissues such as the heart and lungs -Confusion and disorientation -Damage to the kidneys -Kidney stones -Nausea, vomiting, constipation, poor appetite, weakness, and weight loss So as long as yo...

Approx 15 mm long white capsule with one clear end cap outside is has brown spots inside contains white small balls ## Hi Steve, I just thought I'd ask, does the pill have any imprints or markings of any sort? Most prescription medications have an imprint(s) to ensure that the pill(s) can be identified. If it doesn't have an imprint, it could've been smudged off at some point or it could likely be a vitamin or other OTC medication. Please post back with more details regarding this pill, if at all possible. Thank you!

can Pyridoxine treat or breaks an ovarian cyst ## This is just a form of Vitamin B6, so no, it's not going to really do anything for an ovarian cyst. They are usually caused by a hormonal imbalance, which is why they may disappear when a woman takes hormonal contraceptives, or becomes pregnant. Have you had an ultrasound to confirm that you have a cyst?

Hi I'd like to know a North American alternate to Nereve Up OD. Thanks ## Nervup-OD is just a nutritional supplement that contains Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), alpha lipoic acid, folic acid and pyridoxine (vitamin B6). All of these are available over the counter in the U.S. in most vitamin shops, drug stores and grocery stores, you'd just need to look for something that contains the same ingredients. You can also ask a pharmacist for assistance. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks for the reply. It was really helpful. ## I have undergone bonemarrow transplantation after 3 cycles of chemotherapy with bortezomib. During second cycle herpes affected me.

Hi, Is Daneuron , which consists of Vitamin B1, B6 B12 suitable for a vegetarian who does not take eggs, garlic, scallian ,leek achives and animal origin? ## Hi Aik, I believe that supplement should be suitable. However, I actually recommend patch/trans dermal or sublingual versions of supplements because they deliver more of the active ingredients straight into the blood stream- as opposed to getting digested. Also, be sure that the version of B-12 is Methylcobalamin and not Cyanocobalamin. Cyanocobalamin is actually the synthetically derived version of B -12 and is ineffective in some people who lack the enzyme that's needed to digest it. I personally think it's better to have the naturally derived version! You can learn more about this drug on the page for B vitamin complex ...
