Who else had a few too many?

My sister used to hide these behind the couch. Unintentionally tattled on her when I found the stash playing hide & seek; 50+ hidden there

I loved these
DignamWhenAskedaQuestion
if they tasted like gravel , then they were on brand
LooksHeavy
Some guy tried to sell me one for $5 but I’m a smart shopper and got a whole bottle from my grocery store for 7.99 with a coupon

I got superpowers

Looking at this picture and being English, I thought these were ecstasy pills
TinFoilLoon
BUT... you were still excited to take them b/c the commercials brainwashed us into thinking they were amazing..

Man, do you like Brussel sprouts and black coffee too? I always spit these out in my moms plants by the porch on my way to school
Copperbrat
Me too. Like dried, fruit flavored marmite.

Taste? I took it as a suppository

I ate a whole bottle once. My mom panicked and called poison control. They told her they’re basically candy and I might be hyper for a bit.

Bullshit - iron overdose is serious, and can kill a child.
thegarts
Did you survive?
IceWeaselX
I did the same as a toddler. Then I peed in the apartment's floor vent... didn't wet the carpet, but the air was awful for a while.
wozat
What about the shards of glass?
Jbelkin
We were tougher, we used to use the toaster in the tub and stick screwdrivers into the tv for better reception …
My bud ate an entire bottle and the hospital flushed his stomach out
Did…did my mom just pretend to call Poison Control?
Haha no idea. I assume my buds parents freaked out and went straight to the hospital

Tell me this - do you believe your dog is living on a farm upstate?

If there was an iron supplement in the mix, it may have been warranted. Iron toxicity can be nasty.
SuperIncoherentRantingMan
But did you die?
souleater2847
Damn….this little motherfucker gonna cost me money…oh sweetie those are just placebos you good.
Which is kind of ironic since multiple studies have shown in the last five years that vitamins are basically useless money grabs

I'm an ER doc. Mostly it wouldn't cause many problems. I'd be most worried about the iron and would have to do the math. It is very (1/2)
dracklen
Thank you for what you do! Also cool info ^_^!

I need to know the LD50 on Fred, stat.
rare to see anyone get their stomach "pumped" these days, especially for vitamins.
No doubt. We're 40 and this happened when he was like 4
Wardonk3y
Yep, vitamins. Whatever your body doesnt use it'll get rid of. Even what you do use you'll eventually get rid of.
alcaray
Depends on the vitamin in question. Water soluble ones can flush out pretty quickly but the others have a more complicated path to get out.
Unless it has an Iron supplement in the mix. THAT can be VERY dangerous. Which is why most kids vitamins don't have it anymore.
wesski84
Heads up. Flintstones Complete does have iron. I take em daily even as an adult.
Which is fine, so long as you don't chug the whole bottle!
(1/4) Hypervitaminosis is a thing. 1 bottle of Flintstones *does* have enough Vitamin A for acute Vitamin A toxicity in small children.
(2/4) 1 tablet has 6,000IU. The danger zone is >300,000IU. A small bottle has 60 tablets. Large ones have 200.
(3/4) That's 360,000-1,200,000IU of Vitamin A, well over the toxic threshold. References:
