⚠️ Use with caution — restricted in some markets

Iron — Iron supplementation in iron-replete patients may increase cardiovascular and cancer risk — always document deficiency before prescribing [1].

Vitamin D — Granulomatous diseases (sarcoidosis, TB) — unregulated extra-renal CYP27B1 can cause life-threatening hypercalcemia even at standard doses [2][21]

Vitamin B6 — Sensory neuropathy from chronic high-dose B6 (>200 mg/day) — presents as numbness, ataxia. Can be irreversible. Often self-prescribed by patients…

Magnesium — Severe deficiency (<0.50 mmol/L) causes secondary hypocalcemia and hypokalemia that will not correct until magnesium is repleted first [1].

Zinc — Chronic zinc >40 mg/day without copper causes copper deficiency: anemia, neutropenia, myeloneuropathy [1].
