ONE-A-DAY MAXIMUM FORMULA (multivitamin with minerals)


Drug overview for ONE-A-DAY MAXIMUM FORMULA (multivitamin with minerals):

Generic name: MULTIVITAMIN WITH MINERALS
Drug class: Multivitamins
Therapeutic class: Electrolyte Balance-Nutritional Products

No enhanced Introduction information available for this drug.

Numerous multivitamin preparations are marketed, with little standardization of formulas. Useful multivitamin preparations should contain only essential vitamins (those for which there is a recommended daily dietary allowance (RDA)). (See Dosage and Administration.) Preparations containing iron and/or calcium supplements may be useful in some patients (e.g., pregnant or lactating women) but other essential minerals are usually obtained from the diet.

The addition of agents such as liver, yeast, and wheat germ to vitamin preparations offers no advantage over pure chemical ingredients, and inclusion of nonessential agents such as choline, bioflavonoids, inositol, betaine, lecithin, and methionine is unwarranted. Combinations of vitamins and other drugs such as hormones are irrational and should not be used.
