Multivitamins are dietary supplements that contain a combination of different vitamins and minerals. They are commonly used to supplement the intake of essential nutrients that may be lacking in a person’s diet. The duration for which multivitamins can be taken depends on several factors, including individual health needs, nutrient deficiencies, and overall dietary habits.

They can provide personalized guidance based on your nutritional requirements, overall health, and lifestyle factors. Remember that maintaining a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle practices are crucial for overall well-being alongside any dietary supplementation.
