A member asked:

After taking prenatal vitamin i fell sick to my stomach, is this normal?

Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Yes but . . .: It's normal to feel nauseated during your pregnancy (i'm assuming you're pregnant since you're taking a prenatal vitamin). But you may be more sensitive to some prenatal vitamins than others so experiment by trying different ones. Or try hiding it in your meals.
