Self-medicating is "bad". Oh alright! It's fine to take some over the counter medicine and vitamin supplements but other than those, one has to have a prescription from a doctor. I am always one step ahead. I read my blood work results and found that my RBC was a few numbers below norm. I decided I was anemic and started taking B 1-6-12 with iron. When my doctor finally saw my blood work results, he said that everything is normal. I argued that my RBC was low and doctor said that was normal too for my age. I asked my doctor if I need iron supplements. He said no. Now, what do I do with 48 tablets of B 1-6-12 with iron?

That's right; we shouldn't self medicate. But water soluble vitamins will be excreted from our body through the urine. What you don't want is wasting money and wasting the effort of taking them.
