A member asked:

Is there folic acid in vitamin b complex? is it ok to take that in pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: In a vitamin b complex there is usually folic acid. The best way to determine that is to read the label. Prenatal vitamins should also contain b vitamins and Folic Acid and yes they are safe to take in pregnancy.
