Default Vitamins "tailored" to your prescription

I just got back from the drug store to pick up my prescription. Guess what I discovered on the counter? Nature Made Rx Essentials Daily Supplements. There are five formulas. Each formula is designed to be "taken in conjunction with your Rx."

For example, one is "For people taking Zoloft, Lexapro, Prozac, Effexor XR." It reads: "Studies show that people suffering from depression may have lower blood levels of B6, B12, Folic Acid and Vitamin D, which are essential in maintaining emotional well being."

They are all a little different, but interestingly, all but the one for "People taking anti-inflammatory medications," have Vitamin B 12 in it.

The formulas include: statin medications, heartburn or acid reflux medications, depression medications, anti-inflammatory medications and diabetes medications.

I didn't notice the pricing. BTW, it seems to me that taking a B50 tablet and additional B12 would cover the great majority of Vitamin B needs.
