Vitamin
A vitamin product tracked with its own amount, schedule, and reminders.
A vitamin is an essential micronutrient. In PeptideWiz, vitamins are tracked the same way as other items so you can keep routine daily or weekly items organized in one schedule.
You can set units, frequency, refill reminders, and log each time you take it.

Frequently asked questions
What is a vitamin?
Vitamins are natural substances the body needs in small amounts to work properly, and most cannot be made by the body, so they come from food or supplements. Common examples include vitamin C, vitamin D, and the B vitamins. In PeptideWiz, a vitamin is an item you can track with its own amount, schedule, and reminders. MedlinePlus
Do vitamins need a prescription?
Most vitamin products are sold as dietary supplements and do not require a prescription, though some high-dose or specialized forms may be prescribed by a provider. Because vitamins can interact with medications or affect certain conditions, it is a good idea to check with your healthcare provider before starting one. PeptideWiz logs vitamins for you but does not prescribe or recommend them.
Are vitamins reviewed by the FDA for safety and effectiveness?
Vitamin products sold as dietary supplements are regulated as food, not drugs, so the FDA does not review them for safety or effectiveness before they reach the market the way it does with medications. Manufacturers are largely responsible for the quality and labeling of their products. For balanced, evidence-based information, government fact sheets can help. NIH Office of Dietary Supplements
What is the difference between a vitamin and a supplement?
A vitamin is a specific type of nutrient, while a supplement is the broader category of products that can include vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other ingredients. In other words, a vitamin product is one kind of dietary supplement. PeptideWiz lets you track vitamins and other supplements the same way, without offering advice on whether to take them.

How do I track a vitamin in PeptideWiz?
You add the vitamin as an item and can build a protocol that records its amount, schedule, and reminders. You can also keep an administration log of when you took it and track inventory. This is general recordkeeping to help you stay organized and is not medical or nutritional advice.
