For Dietary Supplementation "I had severe hyperacusis (pain in ears with sound) and tinnitus in both ears. Doctors only prescribed nasal steroids, which I continue to take every day, even though it doesn't do any good, just to shut the doctors up about it. They think it's a cure-all. At the internet suggestion of another sufferer, I started taking Lipoflavonoid Plus - 2 tablets up to 3 times a day, vitamin A 8000 units up to 3 times a day, selenium 1/day, zinc 1/day. My left ear is completely cured, i.e., the pain and ringing don't seem to ever return, even if I don't take the supplements. The right ear responds to high continued doses over time. Unfortunately, nausea and vomiting are a common side effect of Lipoflavonoid Plus, and I always seem to be choosing between my stomach and my ears. But the stomach issues don't take nearly as long to resolve as the ear issues, so lesson learned: take the supplement even if just the smell of it turns my stomach."

"My otolaryngologist recommended Lipoflavonoid to treat my benign positional vertigo nearly 20 years ago. It helped immensely, but I stopped taking it, along with all of my other medications, when I started my family. Luckily, the vertigo didn't recur until about a year ago. I restarted the Lipoflavonoid, 2 caplets, 3 times a day and had no dizziness/nausea within a few days. I've successfully decreased the dosage to 2 caplets twice a day, but when I tried just 1 caplet twice a day, the vertigo returned. I know there aren't studies that support this and people claim it's a placebo, but it works for me and prevents me from taking pharmaceuticals with side effects and saves medical fees. I don't suffer from tinnitus, but this product is ESSENTIAL for treating my vertigo. I hope this review helps!"

For Dietary Supplementation "I used this product for roughly 3 weeks. Within the first few days of taking the gummies, I noticed my earring holes in my ears filled up with pus to the point I could push on it and it would ooze. I also was feeling nauseated daily. I stupidly didn't connect these incidents with the gummies, so I continued for a couple more weeks. I began getting cystic pimples along my jawline, nose bridge, zits, and bumps on my scalp, my gas and feces smelled horrendous."

For Dietary Supplementation "I was super slow at figuring out how bad these were affecting me. I started these 3 months ago after my mother-in-law said she took the gummy ones. The store only had these ones, not that I would ever take the others after my experience. I was insanely itchy at the beginning and had headaches every day for two weeks but thought it must have been something else. I stopped taking them after I forgot. Then a month later, I remembered them. Symptoms came back, not so itchy, not always a headache, but I developed a sore throat and mild nausea. I thought, oh no, I got COVID. Had a negative test. Bullet dodged. Then the yeast infection came on. Could not kick it. My doctor prescribed me meds, and I had stopped taking the supplement at that time. Then once again I remembered I had these horrible things! Developed a sore throat and a yeast infection within 3 days, and it all clicked finally. Stay away from these things. Not sure what other damage I did to my body..."

For Hyperhomocysteinemia "Doctor recommended vitamin B complex as I am having issues with nerves in feet and hands until I can see a specialist in about 3 months. Have the feeling of labored breathing and tightness in chest, also some nausea."

For Dietary Supplementation "I couldn't tolerate these vitamins any longer than a few days! They smelled horrible, and I began noticing that I tasted this smell in my mouth, and my skin also smelled just like the vitamins! It was unbearable, along with nausea and stomach upset, pain, etc.! These were not for me! I'm not sure what this overpowering smell is, but I just can't handle it!"

For Dietary Supplementation "I took these after I had my son in March 2016. I was losing so much hair, I was going bald. These made my hair grow so fast, and they tasted so good. I took them for about two months with no problems at all. My hair grew, my nails were stronger, a 10/10, so I decided to buy these again now in September 2017, and the taste is awful. When I take them, I get nauseous right away, and my head feels like it’s about to explode. My stomach feels full of water or bloated, it’s a weird sensation. It really sucks because I was really looking forward to taking these again."

For Dietary Supplementation "I only lasted 4 days on the gel caps, never again. Immediately after taking the recommended dosage, I felt horribly nauseous. I thought I was just getting sick, so I continued to take them. I have never been so nauseous in my entire life, and it also leaves a horrible taste in your mouth. Do not buy this product!"

For Dietary Supplementation "I just took these a few hours ago, and my stomach became nauseous after about 30 minutes. I have felt like vomiting a few times, but I have not. I took 2 Tums to combat the nausea, and when I took these supplements 3 days ago, I didn’t even notice that I had issues then because I blamed the upset stomach on some fast food I ate that night since I had taken the vitamins around 1:00 earlier that day. I ended up with mild diarrhea that night and slept with an upset stomach all night long from about 9 PM to 12 AM, so 13 hours of hell. There’s also a cooling type sensation in my stomach, almost like I swallowed a peppermint. I can’t smell or taste it like others have commented, but the upset stomach is too much to bear. Returning these with the receipt. So glad I only took two versus the recommended dosage of three, or I would have really been messed up."

For Dietary Supplementation "Became extremely ill after taking one dose of two caplets in the afternoon. The next day, I was extremely dizzy and nauseated for the entire day. Could only take small sips of water and ginger ale. Really horrible experience. Blood pressure and heart rate were only slightly elevated. Returned the pills. Did not try them again."

For Dietary Supplementation "OMG, I was so excited about taking these, and I started feeling nauseous and then diarrhea nonstop! I never felt so sick. I went to the doctor, and they told me I’m fine, but again, the gummy side effects do include upset stomach, etc. I wish I had read that before actually taking them. Never again!"

For Dietary Supplementation "I have been taking these for about 2 1/2 months. I wish I had found this before taking them. I feel so ill and nauseous, severe belly pain, bad taste in my mouth, weird rash all over, and the hot shower thing others have experienced. I am very scared that I may have long-term effects from it. Do not take this, Nature's Bounty should be held responsible."
