You should drink a lot of fluids with multivitamins.

That color pee usually means that you're dehydrated. Try drinking more water.

well, there are 2 types of vitamins...
the fat based ones are vitamin A,D,E,K and the water based ones are B & C...(or maybe the other way around?) so if you get too much of vitamin b and c then you'll just pee it out if you've got too much... the adek ones will store in your body, and later turn to body fat if you dont need them...

so yeah, its normal... it just means that you get more vitamins than you need... (thats a good thing, but can also be a bad thing, cuz of the fat thingy, but if you exercise enought then that wont be a problem...)

like the others said you have to drink a lot of water with multivitamins. your body needs the extra water to break it down.
the lighter your pee is the more hydrated you are. so if your pee is really yellow then it's just your body's way of telling you to drink more water
so just listen to your body and drink more water.

It's just the excess vitamins being excreted through your urine... Vitamins B and C are water-soluble, so they come out with water (in your urine). It happens to me, too. ^^;;

what if you tried taking half of the pill instead and see what happpens.

I actually had an allergic reaction to a multi-vit, but it wasn't a physical reaction. I only found out becaue I had a bloodtest done and my - insert scientific name of allergic-reaction-hormone here- levels weere high.
