Is this amount of B12 safe to take daily?
I am looking for a vegan vitamin supplement. I have found this one brand called DEVA Vegan Multivitamin.
http://www.vegetarianvitamin.com/store/catalog/MULTIVITAMIN-and-MINERAL-1-A-DAY-4.html
Most of the vitamin percentages seem fine, but the B12 says it has 1666% !!!
There are a few other percentages that seem a little high too.
Is this safe?

What is the difference between prescription prenatal vitamins and OTC prenatal vitamins?
Today I bought my first 1-month's supply of prenatal vitamins. At Walgreens, they were .00, even after my insurance paid part of the cost. They told me that there is no generic alternative. However, I see that GNC has prenatal vitamins that are over-the-counter, offered for less that .00. The two vitamins seem to have the same main ingreedients for the most part, and in very close percentages. Is there an outstanding reason that the prescription vitamins are better for me? Please don't tell me to "ask my doctor"....that is a given---I am just trying to plan how to pay for all these vitamins.
What do you think?
