Possible Reaction to Centrum Oral Multivitamin

Shelly
09/02/08

Have you ever heard of an allergic reaction to Centrum multivitamin pills?  I had a rash that developed on my hands, feet, legs, arms, buttocks, and in my mouth.  I was very tired and developed a sore throat.  I had a biopsy done and the results came back that the rash was an allergic reaction to something.  The only thing I had changed recently that I could remember was I had switched from an equate brand multivitamin to the Centrum multivitamin.    Have you ever heard of anything like this?  It lasted just over 4 weeks.  I only took the pills for 2-3 weeks and then went back to my other vitamin because I was so tired and sluggish...?????

the only thing i can think of is (a) it was a coincidence and something else or (b) there may be some additive, preservative unique to the formulary.

I had the same problem. someone told me that Centrum is not the cleanest vitamin. Now what that exactly means I can't tell you, but the rash developed on my face.
