"I have only been taking this for about a week and have been experiencing very severe stomach pains and diarrhea. However, I think it could just be cleaning out my system? Still, vitamins are about the only weight loss option I have, as it is the only one that truly works. I have been far less munchy, so I think this is good."

"Do not buy this. I have been using it for a couple of days, and every day I’ve taken this, I’ve woken up with massive cystic pimples. I’ve never had this issue. This product does the exact opposite of what it claims."

"It's been a week since I started feeling itchiness. I thought it was mosquito bites or bedbug bites or ant bites. But it was really a different kind of itchiness. Also, the swelling on my neck and feeling bloated all the time. I thought I just gained some weight, but looking into the scale, it's the same number. Then I stumbled upon this website. I am disappointed I bought and took this vitamin into my system. Never again will I buy a vitamin without going through it."

"I started taking the Nature's Bounty Hair Skin & Nails pills, followed the directions (3 pills per day), and have broken out in red bumps that itch, turn into a rash, and then turn dry and flaky all over my body, even my scalp. It took me getting a biopsy from a dermatologist to figure out it was these pills! DO NOT take these! Like the other posters have stated, these should be taken off the market."

"I took these after I had my son in March 2016. I was losing so much hair, I was going bald. These made my hair grow so fast, and they tasted so good. I took them for about two months with no problems at all. My hair grew, my nails were stronger, a 10/10, so I decided to buy these again now in September 2017, and the taste is awful. When I take them, I get nauseous right away, and my head feels like it’s about to explode. My stomach feels full of water or bloated, it’s a weird sensation. It really sucks because I was really looking forward to taking these again."

"Do NOT take these!!!!! I just took them for a few days, and I was throwing up constantly and had a severe headache every day that was unbearable. I did not expect them to be the vitamins, but when I ended up in the ER, the doctor said my vitamin A and B levels are way too high."

"I, like many others, could not understand why I was developing a rash on my arms. Well, needless to say, do not take these vitamins. They worked for a nail I need to grow back, but the rash is not worth it. Urine and bowel movements will smell horrible. Migraines definitely increased. These are absolutely horrendous. -10 stars if I could!!"

"I only take this supplement intermittently, such as for times when I feel my energy level, immunity, and/or hormonal states are not sufficient. It helps with my sporadic acne issue as well. I love it. I feel lifted from my fatigue slump, and I am able to concentrate so much better."

"I had bought 2 bottles of this supplement. I took just one a day instead of the recommended dosage of 3 a day. I'm glad I did that because with just 1 pill, I felt a severe headache. I still finished both the bottles, and then I started getting palpitations, chest pain, and dizziness. This remained for months and months. Never taking this supplement at any cost. I'd rather drink coconut water to lengthen my hair."

"I developed hives on my arms and chest. I wondered if it was due to this B12 supplement by Nature's Bounty I take oral pill. I switched to a sublingual product and had no problem. That vitamin needed a refill, and I had another Nature's Bounty in my closet, so I tried it again. Hives after the first dose, I ruled out every med and supplement. It’s definitely this product. I decided to Google it and came upon this site, my ah-ha moment. I plan to call them regarding this issue as I want my money back and to make sure they get comments regarding this product."

"I started taking this vitamin because my hair was rapidly falling out. Two weeks I have been on the vitamin, and for the entire two weeks, my stomach was extremely upset. Diarrhea, upset stomach, sore throat, and skin rashes occurred. I have never had any allergic reaction, or even side effects to medication or vitamins, until this. To top it all off, I have noticed not a single change in hair, skin, or nails. Be wary of this product, and at the very least, keep an eye out for symptoms."

"I started taking this as a multivitamin and to help with my skin. Been consistent for a few days now and have started noticing tightness and swelling of my throat, as well as a severe headache. Symptoms have gotten progressively worse, and then I remembered this vitamin I had been taking. These are going in the trash, and I will not recommend to anyone."

"Have been taking this brand and other similar brands to combat my thinning hair loss and nail issues. It seems each time I go back to taking these (usually gummy version), my hair and nails seem worse? It seems no matter what brand I try, it is always the same! So done! No more! I’d rather have what I had before than take these supposed hair/nail “vitamins” and get worse results! Be careful, ladies! Do not waste your $ like I did!"

"I have noticed a slight difference in my skin’s texture in just 1 week. It feels a bit firmer and more supple, my hair is softer and my nails are stronger. However, I’ve been suffering from bloating, water retention, minor headaches, and a yeast infection. I think it’s time to throw it away and move on."

"I started taking these almost 2 years ago. At first, I didn't notice much. After a few months of taking them, I started noticing daily SOB, bloating, vertigo, and severe headaches 3-4 times a week (around the same time each day). I talked to my doctor about these symptoms, I got no answers other than I may have indigestion. I am relatively healthy, exercise each day, and eat healthy, etc. For me to be having these issues is a bit unusual. I started looking into my diet more, my environment, and my daily activities. I could not come up with anything other than these vitamins. After coming on here and reading the other comments, I stopped taking them immediately. It's been 8 weeks and I have not had a single issue. I am so happy that I figured this out. No, I do not take any other medications, so there was no reaction to address. And yes, I drink plenty of water (that is ALL I drink). I also took these with each meal. STAY AWAY FROM THESE! THEY SHOULD BE PULLED OFF THE SHELVES."

"I never thought to research vitamins. October 2020 was my first bout with COVID (lasted 2.5 months), 2nd bout of COVID March 2021, then 2 back surgeries. My hair is falling out by the handfuls. My sister has used these for 4 years and suggested I try them. I took 2/day with breakfast for 3 weeks. I experienced severe gas/bloating, horrible stomach pains, insomnia, extreme fatigue, headaches, my voice is hoarse, an awful taste in my mouth, and a tingly tongue (that should’ve made me think something was wrong). I’m discouraged because I’m getting sicker and didn’t know why. I started reading reviews. Amazon reviews were good, then I found this website. Thank you to those who have written in. I stopped them today and hope I can feel better soon. I bought these gummies from Amazon. There was no expiration date, an odd color, and they stuck together. My side effects are different. DO NOT TAKE THEM."

"I started taking Nature's Bounty Hair Skin and Nails about 8 months ago. I experienced an itchy scalp and did not connect this to the supplement. About 3 months ago, however, I began experiencing severely painful itchy arms that dermatologists were unable to identify. After exhausting all treatments (steroids, Benadryl, antihistamines, allergy creams, etc.), I consulted another doctor who helped me journal and identify supplements and/or changes to my diet just prior to the itchy conditions. We identified that I started this supplement 2 weeks before the itchy scalp symptoms began. This has been an absolutely horrible experience for me. I have spent hundreds of dollars on doctors, lotions, creams, antihistamines, etc. Also, some random headaches and stomach pain that I had not experienced previously, but the worst of my side effects is the itchy, painful arms that nothing but ice relieves."

"Postpartum hair loss: The 2nd day of taking this, I had a bad headache, but I get them occasionally, so I didn't connect the two. The 3rd time, I woke up at 4 am and had severe hives covering my body. I took two Benadryl and waited an hour or so. It helped relieve the itching, but my throat began to swell, and it was difficult to breathe. My husband took me to the ER, and I was given steroids and Pepcid. Finally, the hives went away, and I felt better, so I was discharged and slept for like 4 hours. Woke up with a headache, so I took more Benadryl, which the doctor advised. All this to say, I will not be taking it anymore. I'll wear a scarf until my hair grows back! Not worth it! Plus, they smell so bad, and one night I kept belching that awful taste."

"I only lasted 4 days on the gel caps, never again. Immediately after taking the recommended dosage, I felt horribly nauseous. I thought I was just getting sick, so I continued to take them. I have never been so nauseous in my entire life, and it also leaves a horrible taste in your mouth. Do not buy this product!"

"I have been taking Rexall Super Plenamins Plus for many, many years. I feel better almost immediately. If I go off and try something else, I immediately go back to Rexall Super Plenamins Plus. I do this because with other vitamins and minerals, I start to drag through my day. I moved 55 miles north and don't know where to find a store that sells Rexall vitamins. Hence why I'm on this computer site. Thanks."

"I tried the Lipo-Flavonoid Plus for tinnitus for the first time, took 2 caplets in the morning after eating. The ringing was low before taking it, and within the hour after, the ringing went louder than ever, and I could feel my blood pressure going up, then got a headache. I have hypertension. I don’t think I’ll take any more."

"I've been taking these vitamins and had zero problems, except a stomach ache, but that was my own fault because the directions clearly state to take with a meal. As long as I eat and drink the amount of water adult humans are recommended to drink to stay hydrated and ensure that my body properly flushes the vitamin and carries the nutrients where they need to go, I'm fine. My nails have been a lot stronger and grow faster, I haven't noticed much change in my hair yet, but I also have very curly hair and we are show-ers, not growers, so it's hard to tell."

"I have taken this medication for three days. The ringing in my ears is longer and stronger. Before I took no drugs, the ringing was small and would stop some days. I will stop the Lipoflavonoid for tomorrow and see what happens. Ringing all day. Today."

"I take this brand's multivitamins and decided to try these out since my nails are brittle as heck. I took 3 pills/day for two days (as directed on the bottle) before I noticed symptoms. The first night I did not sleep at all, and by the second night, my entire body was covered in itchy, burning hives that came in waves. I was itching and awake all night. It is an awful experience. Please do not buy this product. Your body will thank you later."

"After taking these gummies, I began to experience full-body itchiness, bumps and redness on my skin, blistering on my toes, and enlarged lymph nodes. I was so confused at first about what could be causing these symptoms, since nothing major in my life had changed. Luckily, I found these reviews, which mirrored my symptoms and realized I had started these gummies right around the time the skin issues began. Finding these reviews saved me the cost of prescription allergy medication and a dermatology visit!"
