Overconsumption of vitamin A can cause rashes, headaches, drowsiness, nausea, irritability and problems in muscle coordination. When symptoms develop it would be best to decrease your intake of vitamin a supplements for at this point it does more harm than good. Unlike vitamin a, overconsumption of vitamin c only leads to excess to leave the body through fluids. Still it is better to maintain balance intake to avoid any health problem.
