Depends on what's in your vitamins. Call the doc and read the ingredient's or check with the pharmacist.

Vitamin C will not affect the pill; regular "one each day" supplements are generally safe but I recommend taking anything with Vitamin E 12 hours away from the pill. If you take your contraception at night, take your vitamin in the morning. Those who megadose Vitamin E, run a risk but the amount in daily vitamin pills is likely safe.

Sera's advice is the best with any dietary supplement - check with your prescriber or chemist.
