Can regular vitamins make you nauseated (NBR)?

And no, I'm not pregnant. I just got a huge wave of nausea and almost threw up. I was really upset because I thought I must be getting a stomach bug, but then I realized I had taken a new vitamin this AM. I remember on the tri boards many of the women had issues with prenatals (I never did). Can this happen with regular ones? I'm hoping that is just it and I'm not getting sick. My tummy is still strangely unsettled and I have a weird feeling in my throat. But I feel ok otherwise, if that makes sense.

All types of multi-vitamins make me nauseous.

Did you eat first?  It's the iron in vitamins (any vitamins) that can make you nauseous...especially on an empty stomach.

I had a banana, but maybe that wasn't enough. Guess I've learned! I've never had an issue before.

I take kids vitamins for this reason.

Try taking them at night before you go to bed (with a glass of milk if you like it). I found this is the only way I can take vitamins. GL!

If I take any vitamin on an empty stomach I get very sick.  I too have to take mine at night.
