MULTI-VITAMIN DAILY Lifestyle Interactions

  • Multivitamin, Oral tablet

    • Interaction: Food
    • Severity: Mild
    • Notes for Consumers: Biotin may not work as well if you consume raw egg whites while taking this medication. If you notice unusual thinning of your hair or brittle nails, or if you think Biotin is not working as well for you, contact your prescriber.
    • Notes for Professionals: Dietary avidin, a glycoprotein in raw egg whites (food), binds tightly to dietary biotin and prevents its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Cooking denatures the avidin, disabling it from interfering with biotin absorption.

  • Multivitamin, Oral tablet

    • Interaction: Alcohol
    • Severity: Moderate
    • Notes for Consumers: Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages at the times you take Niacin, Niacinamide. Side effects such as skin flushing from Niacin may get worse when you drink Alcohol (also known as Ethanol) at the same time as your Niacin dose.
    • Notes for Professionals: Ethanol-containing beverages or hot beverages/foods can exacerbate cutaneous vasodilation caused by niacin and should be avoided around the time of niacin ingestion. In general, this interaction would not be harmful, but might decrease patient tolerance of niacin. Ethanol and niacin, particularly sustained-release niacin, are both potentially hepatotoxic. Although no data are available regarding enhanced hepatotoxicity, excessive ethanol use should be discouraged.
