Can I take Centrum (a multivitamin) while being on marvelon birth control?!
Question: Can I take Centrum (a multivitamin) while being on marvelon birth control?
I take the pilll 6PM every night and centrum in the morning after breakfast. As I am new to birth control, I am also not aware of the medicines that can be taken if you are on this pill. I am aware though that anti-biotics will affect this pill. I have read up on it and some say it's okay and some say it's not a good idea...If anyone is on this birth control pill and taking centrum, please give me advise

Hello. Who said taking Centrum would affect the pill? Whoever it was is wrong. Vitamins do not interact with birth control pills. Instead of listening to people with no knowledge about medication, you should read the insert that comes with your pill ( it will list anything that is not safe to take with them ), or call a pharmacy, and ask them. I took the pill for 15 years, and i do know that vitamins do not affect them in any way. Take care.
ive been on the pill for 6 years and taken multivitamins for most of that time and have not had any problems. i have personally never heard of it being a problem, but for peace of mind, (and not taking the word of some random person on the internet) call your pharmacist :) its a free phone call
