Well it was just an attempt to get really sick. Not die.
The thing that is most concerned about muliti-vitamins overdose is Iron (Fe) and also the fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) as these vitamins are toxic in high dose.
"Nonspecific symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and rash, are common with any acute or chronic vitamin overdose. Vitamin-caused symptoms may be secondary to those associated with additives (e.g, mannitol), colorings, or binders; these symptoms usually are not severe. Each vitamin also has specific symptoms associated with its overdose. The good news is that morbidity and mortality from pure vitamins are rare. One study of acute or chronic overdoses, with more than 40,000 exposures, reported 1 death and 8 major adverse outcomes. Contrast this with most of the drugs out there, which can, overtime, kill or injure thousands out of 40,000 exposures."
You should not get more than 45 mg of iron
per day from food and supplements.
Iron overdose signs and symptoms-nausea, vomiting, upper GI bleeding (black tarry stool), etc.
What I recommend is that you stop taking more multi vitamins immediately.
