Safety Advice

• Supplements should not replace a balanced diet or healthy lifestyle.
• Do not take if you are pregnant or likely to become pregnant without medical advice — high doses of preformed vitamin A can cause birth defects.
• Consult your healthcare professional if you have a medical condition, are taking medications, or are under medical supervision.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose — as excess vitamin A is stored in the body and may become toxic. 

Product Substitutes
Other vitamin A supplements or multivitamins with vitamin A content — for example standalone vitamin A capsules from other brands, or multivitamins with equivalent vitamin A dosage. Choose based on dosage, form (retinol vs beta-carotene), and suitability for your needs.
