- Precautions re: Pregnant or Nursing or Prescription Medications
- Cautions and Interactions
Oral contraceptives, cyclosporine and aspirin are known to increase the need for Vitamin C. Also, Vitamin C may affect the body's tolerance to nitrate medications.
Vitamin C may amplify the effects of furosemide, a loop diuretic. In addition, high intake of Vitamin C may increase serum levels of certain medications, such as acetaminophen and tetracycline. There have been rare case reports of Vitamin C interfering with the effectiveness of blood thinning medications, although recent follow up studies do not support this association.

- General Statements: All Other Content
- Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient well known for its vital role in human immunity. Vitamin C is necessary for the production of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue) and is therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health. Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, hormone synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron. Vitamin C is also a highly effective antioxidant that can protect the body's cells and molecules from damage by free radicals and reactive oxygen species that can be generated during normal metabolism, as well as through exposure to environmental toxins and pollutants. In addition, Vitamin C is important for the regeneration of other antioxidants such as Vitamin E.
