A member asked:
Im compound heterozygous, what would be the best folic acid to take, otc and mg and how many a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
OTC : Folic aviv, any brand is fine, and i would recommend 800mg once a day. It doesn't matter if you take it morning or night, with food or not but what matters is that you are consistent in your habits.
