While the product itself is OK, I just received my order from DAB and discovered that they cover the expiration date of the vitamins with a sticker. Trying to remove the sticker only rips the label making it impossible to read the expiration date of the product. Very bad idea.

I use to take the normal Centrum for years - never a problem.. I am throwing my silver bottle out after about 2 months - mild to heavy stomach pain after every pill - not matter if i take with food or without- very disappointment to read of all the problems

I searched out reviews before buying last summer and found good reviews, with only a few negatives, so I bought a supply for 6 months (I live out of the country 9 months of the year) - only to find that each time I took it, I could expect severe nausea (if I'd eaten little), or stomach pain if I'd had a meal. I continued to take it for 3 months, thinking I'd get used to it, or find the right combination, but it never happened. I still think it's a good product, but not for everyone. If you've never taken it - get a sample size bottle and try it first. I ended up giving away 2 full unopened bottles because it just wasn't worth the pain for me.

I used the Regular Centrum formula (A to Zinc with Lycopene, Lutein, etc), for several years, and was very satisfied, and never had any adverse issues. As I'm over 50, My wife recently picked up a bottle of the Centrum Silver for me. From the first time I used it, I experienced a stomach ache every time, starting 10 - 15 minutes after taking it, and lasting anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. One time was accompanied by moderate nausea.

I've tried taking it morning, evening, with and without food, and always get the same reaction. With the old formula, it didn't matter how or when I took it. After doing a little research on the web, I was actually relieved to see that it's not just me who's having this same reaction. Apparently it's pretty common.

I took centrum silver for years and it has never given me a problem until this year... I believe it is probably the new formula. After 5 minutes of taking it, I get nauseous and the need to throw up along with stomach pains. The nausea and extreme discomfort lasts for about 20 minutes. The first two times I threw up thinking it was food poisoning and now I know better after reading other reviews. My sister had the same side effects. I will be throwing away the bottles I had purchased and will be looking for something new... not worth it.

I'm not going to write about the product for it is well know to the public. The service of the supplier was escelent. God the product on time and in the expected condition.

I bought these, it really cheap when the bargain sale is.

BUT

How!!!

Why???

i don't understand....

alredy opened....(one of 2)

It's a christmas present for one of my parents.

For that reviewer who stated that people over 50 do not need iron?

I'm 52, almost 53 in fact, and I'm still menstruating like a teenager. I absolutely need iron in my diet. I'm a lethargic mess without it.

I'm leery of people who paint with such a broad brush. To say that nobody over the age of 50 needs iron is not only misleading, it's false.

Sooo, I'm going to try this product. I'll still keep taking iron supplements, though!
