Healthy afternoon
It depends on your intake it’s not harmful
If you take multivitamin, it’s probably you want to do everything you can do to protect your health.
In general, multivitamin should be taken only when there is deficiency; otherwise, you can follow a normal balanced diet containing all the essential nutrients.

Good morning pls try to have a balanced diet to meet up your needs rather than using lots of supplements on daily basis.
