A member asked:
Took floradix 2 weeks past consumption date (of 4 wks). floradix said that bacteria can grow it and possibly turn to alcohol. 34 weeks pregnant. worried.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't: Floradix is a liquid iron supplement to help prevent iron deficiency. Most bacteria, if present, will be destroyed by the acid in your stomach, and the amount of alcohol likely to be in the bottle is minimal. My advice is to relax, enjoy your pregnancy, don't take anything not advised by your OB doctor and have a great baby.
