推奨摂取タイミング: With meals containing fat for better absorption

Safety & Side Effects

報告されている副作用

  • ⚠ Hepatotoxicity at chronic high doses of preformed vitamin A
  • ⚠ Birth defects (teratogenic at high doses during pregnancy — avoid >3,000 mcg RAE/day)
  • ⚠ Nausea, headache, and dizziness
  • ⚠ Bone density reduction with long-term excess

既知の相互作用

  • ● Retinoid medications (isotretinoin, tretinoin — additive toxicity risk)
  • ● Orlistat (reduces absorption of fat-soluble vitamins)
  • ● Alcohol (increases hepatotoxicity risk of vitamin A)
  • ● Tetracycline antibiotics (increased risk of intracranial pressure)

耐容上限摂取量: 3,000 mcg RAE/day (preformed vitamin A; beta-carotene has no established UL)
