What would be the largest amount of folic acid that is safe to take?

Dr. Ronald Krauser, Bowman Gray School of Medicine of Wake Forest University Answered Jun. 10, 2013
50 years experience in Internal Medicine - Rheumatology
See details. There may be no real safety issues and the kidney excretes what the body cannot use. Imo, it is unnecessary to take doses above 2 mg daily.
