Hmmm, How often have you given it to him? Beardies do need vitamin supplement also if the beardie is young it is more important. Calcium is a must every feeding, vitamins reduce the amount you give him to two times a week. also make sure you are using a uvb bulb with a rating of 10.0 or higher. not much to do if the damage is already done tho.

Time, and lots of mistings. The extra water will help flush the toxins out.

Obviously, stop giving him that particular vitamin, and find a different supplement for AFTER he recovers (I’d avoid using any until the lethargy has worn off).

If you are really concerned, or it gets worse, look for a vet that specializes in reptiles.
