As a pregnant woman, if you do not get enough Folic Acid before pregnancy, and during the first trimester of pregnancy (first 12 weeks), your baby is at higher risk for neural tube defects. Neural tube defects are serious birth defects that affect the spine, spinal cord, or brain of the baby, including Spina Bifida. This does not mean this will occur if you do not take folic acid – it simply mean the risk is that much higher.

You can start taking Pregnacare Plus at any point during pregnancy.  Each tablet provides a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals as found in Pregnacare Original, including the exact recommended level of 400µg Folic Acid for during pregnancy, plus the additional benefits of an Omega-3 capsule, providing 300mg DHA. Maternal intake of DHA contributes to the normal development of the eye and brain of the foetus. (A daily intake of 200mg DHA is required in addition to the recommended daily intake of DHA for adults).

Take two Pregnacare Max tablets, plus one Omega-3 capsule every day. The tablet/capsule blister packs are marked with the days of the week to help you keep track. It is important that the two tablets and one capsule are taken per day to achieve the recommended daily intake of nutrients. Swallow the two tablets and capsule, one at a time with a cold drink and take with a main meal. Do not swallow the tablets/capsules with a hot drink, like tea or coffee, as this can cause them to disintegrate too early. The tablets/capsules are not to be chewed. Do not exceed the recommended intake.

Pregnacare Original can be taken from as soon as you discover you are pregnant and throughout your pregnancy.  It is recommended by the UK Department of Health that 400µg of Folic Acid be taken from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy. Supplemental Folic Acid intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus. Folic Acid is also beneficial beyond 12 weeks as it contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

The UK Department of Health also recommends a daily supplement containing 10 µg of Vitamin D should be considered by pregnant women. Pregnacare Original provides 10µg per daily tablet.
