A member asked:

I am 13wks pregnant&i'm using my prenatal vit w/ only 150mg of calcium&400iu of vit d.would it be safe if i will add on calcium 600mg with 400iu vitd?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Check w/your: Ob, but there should be no problem. If your dietary calcium intake is already high, you may not need the extra calcium, but the vitamin d is excellent up to about 2000 units of d3/ay.
