trientine multivitamin with minerals

Applies to: trientine and Tab-A-Vite Maximum (multivitamin with minerals)

Mineral supplements or mineral-containing medications such as multivitamin with minerals can bind to trientine in the gastrointestinal tract, which may reduce the absorption of both trientine and the mineral. It is best to avoid taking these medications together when possible. However, if you must take both, you should try to separate the times of administration by at least two hours. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
