    I use to take other vitamins but I switched to Centrum Silver. I took it 4 different times. The first time was fine, the second I had a sudden stomach ache so strong that I had to lie in bed for an hour. I wasn't sure it was from the vitamins, as the third time was fine. The forth and last time, I took it in the morning after toast and was feeling so sick, I wanted to vomit. I didn't vomit ... Show Full Comment

    Took a whole bottle of Centrum Silver Women over 50 and had problems all summer with abdominal problems..looked at the label and saw there was iron in them..Thought folks over 50 weren't to take iron supplements, so why is it in them? Went back to my Women's 50 One a Days and feeling fine now.

    I noticed on the ingredients that this is made with hydrogenated oil which means trans fat.

    Comment:
    I took Centrum Silver for eyes, heart, memory and health with vitamins A through Z.I have over active thyroid and Centrum Silver has iodine in it which is good for under active thyroid but not over active thyroid. The iodine is what I think caused my eyes to swell after I took only one pill one time.
