    What to know

    Adults need 700 to 900 mcg of vitamin A a day, which most diets supply. One softgel provides 3,000 mcg, which equals the adult upper level in the Australian and New Zealand Nutrient Reference Values before you count food or a multivitamin. Preformed vitamin A is stored in the liver and builds up, so long term daily use at this strength is not advised without a doctor's guidance.

    Who should check first

    • Pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding: do not use it. Too much vitamin A in pregnancy can cause birth defects.
    • Taking isotretinoin or another retinoid: do not use it.
    • Liver conditions or heavy drinking: do not use it without your doctor's advice.
    • Fish allergy: it contains cod liver oil.
    • Taking a multivitamin: do not double up on vitamin A.
