Elys' 5mg Folic Acid Tablets - 1 Strip of 10 Tablets

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) deficiency during the crucial early weeks of pregnancy can lead to catastrophic neural tube defects (like spina bifida) in the developing fetus. Elys' 5mg Folic Acid provides a clinical-strength daily dose. This essential prenatal vitamin ensures adequate folate levels for healthy fetal spinal cord development and effectively treats adults suffering from folate-deficiency megaloblastic anemia.

How to Use / Operate

Take 1 tablet daily swallowed whole with a glass of water, or as prescribed by your physician. For pregnancy prevention of neural tube defects, it is highly recommended to start taking folic acid at least one month before trying to conceive.
