Too many vitamins? Isn't that working the liver too hard?

On my last visit to my PCP, I told him I was off three of my four prescription meds now that I'm down 80+ lbs. It was with his encouragement, of course. He said that getting off those meds really has given my liver a break since it doesn't have to process all those meds. So I'm wondering, taking alot of vitamins.....isn't that working the liver just as hard as when I was taking prescription medicine? I take a multi, calcium citrate, dry E, dry A&D, C, Iron, Sublingual B-12. Am I overdoing it? I don't take them all at one, I spread them out over the course of the day, but still, isn't this alot of work on the liver and are all these vitamins really necessary?
