It is not usually recommended. As I am sure you are probably aware, men lack a menstrual cycle. Due to this, there need for iron is actually much lower than a woman's. Prenatal vitamins are very high in iron and can actually cause some problems for a man. Vitamin companies such as One-A-Day have men's formulas to meet their specific needs. If anyone ever has specific health issues or is on any kind of other medications, a doctor should always be asked before starting new supplements or supplements that are intended for another purpose.

Probably not, unless they contain excessive amounts of iron.
