Folic Acid is a member of the vitamin B group and is essential for good health. It is required for the manufacture of nucleic acids (such as DNA), the genetic material of cells, and is vital for the development and proper function of the central nervous system.

Folic Acid 400 microgram tablets are indicated for the prevention of first time neural tube defects in the foetus. The neural tube is part of the nervous system and is located within the spine. Neural tube defects can cause stillbirth, neonatal death, and severe disabilities such as Spina Bifida. This product is intended for use by women who are planning a pregnancy.

Studies have shown that over 70% of first time neural tube defects such as Spina Bifida can be prevented by taking folic acid (0.4mg) daily.

Please see the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) before consuming.

Please refer to patient information leaflet.
  • Women planning a pregnancy should take one tablet (0.4 mg) daily. It is recommended to begin taking this product at least 14 weeks before becoming pregnant and continue taking it for at least the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
