My multivitamin contains VitA and I'm panicking

I'm taking Swisse Women's ultimate multivitamin and I'm 10weeks pregnant. It has 833 ug of Vit A which is 104%, I assume, of RDA but it doesn't specify. I wish I could put a put a photo up as it kind of looks like it is saying it's from beta ceratene, which would mean it's fine but the labelling is ambiguous.

I asked the boots pharmacist when I bought it who said it was fine. I am finding myself incredibly anxious with this pregnancy and I feel very stressed about this now.

Has anyone taken this multivit too, and do you know if it's ok?

You’ll be fine. It’s baeely overtour daily allowance - you aren’t overdosing. Just switch to pregnacare or similar now that you’ve noticed

The recommendation is to avoid supplements containing over 1500ug
