I was prescribed prenatal plus tablet by my doc. I am ttc after the loss of my baby in feb. I've read the previous posts where it is explained what vitiams it contains. I've looked it up and that is when you are taking 4 pills. My doc prescribed it for a quantity of 100 but the pharmasist said they can only do 30 a month. So is this prenatal suppose to be taken as 1 or 4 pills a day? I just want to make sure that i am getting the appropriate amounts. ## Hi Sara, The dosage guidelines for Prenatal Plus Indicate that: As a dietary adjunct before, during and after pregnancy, take one tablet daily with a meal, or as directed by a physician. I would suggest following these guidelines unless you are instructed to do otherwise by your doctor. I strongly believe that with an abundance o...

I want a specific list of the vitamins and minerals that is in this vitamin so I will know if I need any other supplements. For example: Does it have Zinc, Cysteine, L-theanine, Omega-3's, B complex, I want to know EXACTLY WHAT ALL IT DOES CONTAIN, insert that comes with my prescription tells me NOTHING. ## I understand your dilemma, many of them just say it's a vitamin supplement, but there are no specifics on how much of anything it contains or what it may be missing. These specific ones from Amneal Pharmaceuticals are listed as containing: 1.84MG THIAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE;120MG ASCORBIC ACID;10MG PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE;400UNT VITAMIN D;22UNT VITAMIN E;22MG VITAMIN E;12MG CYANOCOBALAMIN;400UNT CHOLECALCIFEROL;20MG NIACINAMIDE;4000UNT VITAMIN A;1MG FOLIC ACID;20MG NIACIN;1.84MG ...

does akyma prenatal plus have gelatin, if so what is the source? is there any multi vitamin that does not contain any animal products? thanks ## @latif, Based on my research, Akyma (also known as Amneal) Pharmaceuticals discontinued their prenatal plus tablets some time ago. However I did come across a list of inactive ingredients and apparently it does contain gelatin sourced from porcine, which is pork. You can view more details about it here if you scroll down to the Prenatal Plus section: prd02.apsiva.net/catalog/servlet/com.apsiva.servlet.pc.PCHomeServlet?task=login And as far as vegan multivitamins are concerned, from personal experience I would suggest looking into brands like Garden of Life, since all their products are raw and plants based. I hope this helps!

Is the vitamin (NDC# 44946-1045-01) Pnv Prenatal 27-1 Mg the same as (NDC# 69543-0258-10) Preplus 27-1 Mg? ## Unfortunately I haven't been able to locate any information on the second NDC # that was provided. However, the first National Drug Code of 44946-1045 is in fact associated with Pnv Prenatal Plus Multivitamins... If it's of any help though, the NDC of 76439-258 just so happens to be another National Drug Code associated with Preplus 27-1. When you click on the highlighted NDC links (above) it will direct you to a page with more specific details for that particular supplement/medication. Upon doing so, you'll be able to see that both the active & inactive ingredients are conveniently listed for comparison. Hope this helps!

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!

Brown oblong pill; no scoring; no imprints: prenatal vitamins? ## I'm trying to compare the prenatal vitamins my doctor prescribed for my 1st and current pregnancy. I was taking Natelle Plus. It is a pink oblong pill that has a P and 112 printed on it. Along with it in the same little foil packet is pinkish/redish liquid gel capsule. Currently I'm taking the Prenatal Plus tablets. On that is printed G12. It seems it has too much A and some herbs that concerns me. How do you think these compare? Also at the time I took the Natelle Plus there was not a generic and it was very expensive. What compares to the Natelle Plus because I really liked them? Thank you so much for your help.

Is this going help me get a baby im been trying since 2005 i got preganent in 2005 had a stillborn got preganent off prenatal z pill. ## No, this will not improve your chances of pregnancy. These are multivitamin/mineral tablets. They are commonly given to women who are trying to get pregnant or who are pregnant to make sure they have the proper nutrition to support a developing fetus. Has your doctor suggested you take it?
