What brand multi-vitamin do you take?
I currently take Theragran-M (which is now available only in Walgreen's Drugs) upon the advice of my doctor. it does not contain iron, and since i am borderline anemic, I also take an iron pill. My wife also takes Theragran-M, but no iron.

I take the generic Equate brand multivitamin from Walmart. It's got exactly the same formulation as Centrum Silver, at about 60% the price.

Kirkland from Costco. We like that they are USP certified.
Last time we looked Sam's were not.
We are members of both Costco and Sam's.

Member's Mark Men 50+ multivitamin ($12/400) and one 1000IU vitamin D3 capsule daily, which also cost ~$12 for 400, so annual vitamin costs are less than $25. I take mine right after breakfast. Have had bad luck taking multivitamins on an empty stomach.
FYI -- I added the extra D3 as a direct result of what I have read regarding vitamin D's role in our body's immune response especially as it relates to corona viruses. I figure that $12 is pretty cheap and there's no risk with a dose of 2000IU per day of D3.

Another Kirkland Multi. We also add supplements including D3, B12, Turmeric and more. I like that they don't contain iron as iron upsets my stomach if not taken with a meal and fruit is not a meal .

None for me. I eat quite well thanks to DW. I'll try to take Vitamin D during the dark days of winter as there is unlikely to be a tropical escape this year.
