Folimed 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. Folimed 5mg 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Folimed used for?

It is an essential B-vitamin used to treat megaloblastic anemia and to protect fetal development in pregnant women.

Should I take this on an empty stomach?

It can be taken with or without food. Taking it with a meal may help if you experience mild stomach upset.

Important Clinical Considerations

High doses of folic acid can mask the clinical symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency (pernicious anemia). Your doctor should rule out B12 deficiency before you begin long-term high-dose folic acid therapy to prevent irreversible nerve damage.
