Dear XXXXXXX
Scientifically there are no real or obvious benefits of multivitamin/multimineral tablets unless an individual has vitamin/nutritional deficiencies. Therefore I do not recommend my patients to take any supplements unless there is a real need.
Therefore can you specify the reasons why you wish to take the supplements? Are you suffering with any symptoms?
Awaiting your reply...
Regards

My metabolisim is very slow. I feel so tired after climing one floor and have got hair loss problem. Read some articles that these suppliments actually improve the metabolism and keeps the over all health in a good condition.
If you wish to try then you might try Tab . Biotin forte.
It contains vitamin C. It is specifically helpful for hair fall issues while providing addition supplementation.
On the contrary, I think you also need to get your thyroid hormone checked. Underactive thyroid state can be responsible for low metabolism, easy tiredness and hair loss.
Hope this helps.
Wish you good luck!!
