Customer Reviews of Centrum, 250-Count Bottle

Customer Review: Makes you wonder about Amazon's "discount" pricing
Summary: 5 Stars

This 250 count package is available at any pharmacy and grocery store for $16.99 -- makes you wonder how Amazon arrives at the list price of $29.99 and the seemingly fabulous 43% discount to arrive at the selling price of $16.99.

Its a superb product, mind you -- but makes on think what other inflated list prices Amazon lists on its website to offer seemingly good deals (I've noticed this in the electronics section several times, but never inflated by such a high percentage...)

Update on November 10 2006: Amazon has since lowered the price to 13.99
Update on December 1 2006: Amazon no longer carries this item

Customer Review: Am I really benefitting?
Summary: 2 Stars

Its anyone's guess whether Im throwing my money away or actually benefitting from these vitamins. They are a bit large, but shouldnt be a problem if you have swallowed pills before. You can cut them in half if they pose a problem, but swallow them quickly because the taste isnt too pleasant. People seem to trust the claims of centrum and other vitamin makers, so I hope that its money well spent. In honesty, I feel it changes the color of my urine, but probably doesnt provide my body with all the vitamins it claims. I dont think the body can really handle all of them in a magic pill. Who knows? Not me...

Customer Review: centrum vitamins
Summary: 2 Stars

I used to take the old formula with no problems. Something about this one has me getting really sick. It took me a while to figure that it was this vitamin making me sick. After taking this tablet with food or after food, In about 15 minutes I start to feel severe pain around my chest, hardly able to breath. It happened at work and I almost called 911 and my husband, I was sure it was a heart attack. Good thing I waited and after about 1 hour I was OK. I waited a few weeks and tried it again, exact same thing happened. Now I am stuck with a huge bottle of vitamins I cannot use.

Customer Review: The most complete multivitamin
Summary: 5 Stars

When I was a student, I had tons of time on my hands. I wandered the aisles of the pharmacy and checked out the labels of all the multivitamin/multimineral bottles. Centrum had more vitamins and minerals crammed into each tablet than any other multivitamin/multimineral tablet. If you are looking for a broad range of vitamins and minerals, sort of a safety net in case you're missing anything, this would be it. It's no substitute for eating, but it's a nice backup.

Customer Review: Stomach pain!!
Summary: 1 Stars

I cannot take these. I tried one and had horrible stomach pain within 30 minutes, and it lasted a good hour. I happened to mention it to my friend who was here, and she said, "Was it Centrum?" and she told me that she had the SAME experience with these vitamins this year as well! Not sure what's going on with these, but wanted to add my voice to the group.
