Is there a specific dosage that puts you at risk?

The doc said: “The dosage used in the SELECT trial was 400 IU per day of alpha-tocopheryl. Of note, the recommended dietary allowance for adults for vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) is 15 mg (22.4 IU) per day.”

As she explained, vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin, and you can have side effects at doses higher than 400 IU per day, such as nausea, fatigue, dizziness, weakness, and rash.

“Vitamin E also can interact with other medications and vitamins, such as warfarin, statins, Vitamin K, and others.”

According to Doctor D’Andre, vitamin E has also been associated with excess bleeding.
