Is It Safe To Take Centrum And Atenolol Together?

Hi, My name is Jessica, I am 28 and recently put on Atenolol for Migraine prevention and uncontrolled A-fib. I know I m a mess right! Anyhow I also started myself on a multivitamin (Centrum for Adults). Do you see any conflict with taking both? Thanks!

Hello,
Thank you for using health care magic.

Multivitamins may decrease the effects of Atenolol. Therefore, the time of administration of Centrum and Atenolol should be atleast 2hrs apart. It is always important to inform your doctor about all the medications you
use, including Vitamins.
