I usually have them daily - Its just b vitamins & c isnt it really so be the same as having a multi vitamin? I usually have the perfomance ones with calcium etc

Just found this on the berocca site also


Can I use Berocca whilst breastfeeding?
The vitamins and minerals in Berocca are excreted into breast milk, but harmful effects on the child are unlikely when used at the recommended dose of one tablet per day. If you have any concerns we recommend that you talk to your doctor or midwife about taking vitamin supplements whilst breastfeeding.

I have one everyday too. I'm pretty sure our bodies excrete out the Vitamin B anyway, that its not something we can store so we can't overdose, the level doesn't build up.

I couldn't live/manage without my berroca!!
