Patient's question:
40 days pregnant, it is said that I need to digest folic acid. When I went to the pharmacy, the clerk recommended a bottle of By-health Folic Acid and Iron Tablets, so I bought one. After checking the information online, I found that some people recommend pure folic acid, so can I take this Folic Acid and Iron Tablet? Is its effect the same as pure folic acid? Or does adding iron cause side effects? I just found online that doctors recommend taking 2 tablets a day, but why does the bottle suggest taking only 1 tablet a day?Previous treatment and effectiveness: Before being pregnant, I took 0.4 mg of 【Duotai Folic Acid Tablets】. What assistance do I need: Thank you! I hope to get the best answer; (Thank you very much to the doctor for quickly clarifying how to treat and prevent it.)
