Trans-vitamins?

To be blunt, I work in a drug store. In a way, it's rather convenient since I just have to talk to coworkers about my prescription. On the other hand, I spend more than a fare amount of time each day staring at medicinal product labels.

I recently refilled my prescription, and each -- Estradiol and Spiro -- came with a little sheet suggesting a smattering of vitamins to compensate for the effects of the HRT. Also, since I work in a drug store, I can't help but think that it's a mere ruse to make me spend more money.

However, I've been thinking about this a bit more, and have started to worry if there just might be something to this. Here's their list:
  • Balanced B Complex
  • Calcium with Vitamin D
  • Magnesium
  • Niacin
Any thoughts?
