Are the prenatal G12 pills suitable for vegetarians? ## Hi Jack, Because it's not listed on the product packaging, it would be difficult to know where the ingredients were sourced from without contacting the manufacturer directly. However, being primarily vegan myself... I would probably try to steer clear of products that don't state their sources on the box. Have you heard of a company called Garden of Life (Vitamin Code)? They also have a Raw Prenatal multivitamin w/ iron, except theirs is verifiably raw, vegetarian, gluten-free & dairy-free. It's about $40 for a two month supply. Definitely worth checking out! I hope this helps!

What are the effects and side effects of Calten D? ## Calten-D contains: Calcium carbonate, Vitamin D3, and Elemental Zinc. This is simply a prenatal Vitamin and Mineral supplement to help support a healthy pregnancy. As far as side effects go, if the dose of this medication is higher than the US RDA (recommended daily allowance) there is positive evidence of human fetal risk, but the benefits from use in pregnant women may be acceptable despite the risk (e.g., if the drug is needed in a life-threatening situation or for a serious disease for which safer drugs cannot be used or are ineffective). Please post back if you have any other questions or comments to add.

I need t know the maximum daily dosage for Marnatal F to perform a calculation. ## Hello, Tim! How are you? The FDA lists Marnatal F as being a prenatal multivitamin, so they are usually dosed as just one tablet a day. A woman shouldn't exceed the dosing, because getting too much of some of the nutrients it contains could be dangerous for both her and the baby. Its typical side effects include nausea, dizziness, constipation and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

does anybody know if prenatal pills will make me fertile? ## Do prenatal peals make me fertile ? ## Because prenatal vitamins are not supposed to contain any hormones, they will probably not make a difference in fertility. They are mainly intended to give your body super nutrition so that when you bear a child, you won't become too iron or calcium deficient. Also, I've heard that hair and nails grow stronger, and there are some women who take prenatal vitamins all the time, not just when they are pregnant. I may be wrong about the no hormone part, since there are so many different kinds out there. If anybody hears otherwise, please let me know!

my daughter was prescibed these for prenatal vitamins, but they don't look or taste like vitamins. On the pill itself it says ethex on one side and on the other it says 317. ## I would like the names of all the prescribed prenatal vitamins. ## Well, you aren't supposed to taste them. LOL Personally, I'd not want to, since most vitamins won't taste very good. . The tablet with the ETHEX 317 marking is, indeed, a prenatal vitamin called Natalcare RX, it is prescribed to pregnant women to help ensure they have the proper amount of nutrients for both them, and the baby. They are very potent, so according to FDA reports, they sometimes cause nausea, and constipation, as side effects. Ref: Prenantal Vitamins Is there anything else I can help with?
