Hi, I just took my daily dose of Abilify and Prozac too early and now my eyes are bloodshot and I'm feeling a bit nauseous. How long have you had the nausea? Is this stable or getting worse?

I recently started taking Centrum One A Day vitamins and have been getting a stomach ache every morning after taking it. What’s wrong? I read online that it contains titanium dioxide, which can cause cancer. If I stop taking it now, will I still get cancer? What are good multivitamins for women that include iron but will not cause stomach issues? Do I actually need to take multivitamins? If not, which vitamins should I supplement my diet with? I was anemic in the past, so they recommend keeping up iron. So, are just iron and vitamin D supplements enough? Are probiotics good too? I take a probiotic capsule but am unsure if I need it.
