disposing of vitamins

melancholly

my multivitamins are making me feel sick - very odd but not a total surprise as my stomach is known for its unpredictable nature (I've been taking them for a year but now it's clear that there's a problem)! anyway, there's no point keeping them - can i just put them in the bin or do i need to worry about disposing them like medication?

(sorry - i'm guessing the bin will be fine but i thought i'd check!)

I wouldn't chuck them away myself, I'd give them to a friend if I didn't want them any longer but putting them in the bin if you must should be perfectly OK.

Are you sure it's the vits and are you taking them after a meal rather than on an empty stomach?

well since i've had stomach probs for a while, when they came back i did some exclusions and this was the only one which made a difference. tried them in the morning after breakfast or in the evening and that just made it clear!

i've tried to get my OH to have them, but he's not fussed. maybe i'll see if anyone else wants them, but a half used tub of vitamins that made me feel sick is a tough thing to give away!

disposing of vitamins is not good because multi vitamins are always useful. but please take it with proper consultation.

Don't throw them out with the rubbish.

The last thing we need is the rats on the landfill sites taking multivitamins and getting fitter! :rotfl::rotfl:
