Yes, in moderation. If you are prescribed pre-natal vitamins, then take them as directed. if you're buying off-the-shelf vitamins, take THOSE as directed. Some vitamins can be toxic when taken to excess (like vitamin A), and some are OK in any amount (like vitamin C). if you are eating a properly balanced diet, you probably don't NEED vitamins, but for a newly pregnant mom-to-be, a folic acid supplement (taken in accordance with the directions, no more!) isn't a bad idea.

Yes. Vitamin overdosing can cause serious side effects. Serious liver damage can result from too much vitamin A. Undesirable side effects can occur with too much vitamin B-3 and B-6. Too much vitamin D can cause serious side effects. Too much vitamin C can cause diarrhea and stomach discomfort. If you take too much calcium, your bones can become brittle and weak and break under normal conditions. You should not self prescribe high dosages of any minerals or vitamins unless you have checked with your doctor.

Vitamins A, C, or E taken in excess per the Mayo Clinic.
Most vitamins taken are okay to ingest in excess. Exceeding the daily requirement by more than 125% is not necessarily going to help you, however. Your body will just get rid of what it doesn't need (water-soluble vitamins). Consult your doctor or pharmacist regarding the 25 different vitamins that you are taking, as some may affect any medications you may be taking. Be sure that you are not taking too much of a particular vitamin that may not be removed in excess from the body (fat-soluble vitamins). View attached chart to learn more about hypervitaminosis (excess intake of particular vitamins) and what the recommended intake is.
