A member asked:
My wife is 10 week pregnant, previously she is taking sysfol active tablet till 4th week, then we consult other doctor for some reason, that doctor prescribe folvite 5mg tab, but doctor suggest that we can continue to take sysfol active, is this ok.?

There is no need to take both. What is usually given for a pregnant woman to supplement and give adequate amout because of increased demand for also the fetus is Iron and folate supplement. The amount of folate being taken from both Sysfol and folvite is not necessary because she only needs about 1 mg a day.
