Side effects Macrovit
When taking the medicine in recommended doses, side effects usually do not occur. If an allergy occurs, you must stop taking it and then consult a doctor. Another reaction to taking it is that urine turns yellow, but this is an absolutely harmless symptom, since it occurs because the medicine contains riboflavin.
