Dosage Reference
Reference Information Only
Dosages shown are general references from official sources. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized dosing.
Adults:
Vitamin C & E capsules are taken by mouth. For adults, the usual dose is 1 capsule a day, or as advised by the registered physician.
Side Effects
Vitamin C is generally well tolerated, though very high doses have been linked to diarrhoea and other stomach upsets. Vitamin E is also usually well tolerated; taken in large amounts, it may likewise cause diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, and similar digestive issues, and has occasionally been associated with tiredness and weakness.
Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
Vitamin C should be used cautiously in patients with hyperoxaluria. In patients taking oral anticoagulants or oestrogens, Vitamin E should also be used carefully, since it has been found to antagonize the effects of Vitamin K, leading to an increase in blood clotting time in these patients.
Contraindications
Vitamin C in megadoses has been contra-indicated for patients with hyperoxaluria. A pregnant woman taking more than 5 gm daily ascorbate may suffer from fetal abortion. Higher doses of Vitamin C have reported to cause failure of conception. In case of Vitamin E, there is no absolute contra-indication.
