High vitamin A causes bone pain
Vitamin A toxicity presenting as bone pain.
Case study on vitamin A
We examined a case of a 4-year-old boy who experienced severe bone pain and related symptoms after taking high doses of vitamin A for three months. Despite typical liver-related complications usually associated with vitamin A toxicity, he presented with significant musculoskeletal issues and skin changes. Following the discontinuation of vitamin A, the boy showed a remarkable recovery within two months. This case highlights that excessive vitamin A intake can lead to serious bone pain and other health problems, though he did not develop liver disease as expected.

ATRA shows mixed effects on pain
All-trans retinoic acid in combination with alpha-interferon and dexamethasone for advanced multiple myeloma.
Moderately relevant study results
We explored the effects of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) when combined with dexamethasone and alpha-interferon in treating advanced multiple myeloma. Out of 10 treated patients, eight completed the regimen.

Notably, three experienced a stable plateau phase with improvement in their overall performance and relief from bone pain. However, only two showed a lasting partial response, while three patients did not improve.

Thus, while there was some positive impact on bone pain, further research is needed to confirm these findings and assess ATRA's full potential.
