Can my 2 year old overdose off of vitamins?
The container says one a day for his chewable vitamins, and he wants to eat them like they are candy!

Anybody can overdose off vitamins. They provide a certain percentage of nutrients your body needs each day. This is called Daily Percentage Value. For example, for an adult, the daily percentage value of Iron is 18mg. If you have 30 or 50mg of Iron, it wont hurt. But if you had 300mg of Iron every day, you would probably overdose. Google "Iron overdose". You can overdose on any nutrient.

Do not give him more than 1 a day. It can make anybody very sick if they take too many vitamins.

i’m pretty sure she won’t DIE, but be careful, overdosing on vitamins can lead to lots of things. kidney problems, and i’m sure lots of other things.
