Pregnancy tablets?

Often, pregnancy tablets mean prenatal vitamins—special nutrient supplements taken before and during pregnancy to support both maternal health and fetal development. 

Key Benefits of Prenatal (Pregnancy) Tablets includes:

1. Prevent Neural Tube Defects with Folic Acid-Prenatal vitamins typically provide 400 µg of folic acid daily, starting at least one month before conception and continuing through the first trimester. This reduces the risk of neural tube defects

2. Prevent Anemia and Support Maternal Health-Iron-rich formulations help prevent iron-deficiency anemia, fatigue, and support red blood cell formation—a common issue by the third trimester

3. Support Fetal Brain, Bone & Eye DevelopmentMany prenatal formulations include- iodine, calcium, vitamin D, choline, DHA (omega‑3), and B vitamins to support vision, neural development, and skeletal growth

4. Reduce Pregnancy Complications-Prenatal vitamins help lower risks of preterm birth, low birth weight, preeclampsia, and miscarriage, especially when begun early and paired with a balanced diet

5. Safe and Regulated with Medical Guidance-U.S. government recommendations (e.g., Women'sHealth.gov, CDC, FDA) advise taking only prenatal-specific vitamins—not high-dose “regular” vitamins or herbal supplements—and under medical supervision to avoid overdosing, especially on vitamin A or unregulated products. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/drugs/9754-pregnancy-prenatal-vitamins

Pregnancy tablets, also known as prenatal vitamins, are supplements recommended before and during pregnancy to support the baby's development and the mother's health. Key nutrients include:

  • Folic acid (400 mcg daily) – prevents neural tube defects
  • Iron (27 mg) – supports increased blood needs
  • Vitamin D (10 mcg) – helps bone and immune health
  • Calcium, B12, iodine – aid in fetal growth and development
Health agencies like the NHS and WHO recommend starting prenatal vitamins before conception and continuing throughout pregnancy.( https://www.nhs.uk/pregnancy/keeping-well/vitamins-supplements-and-nutrition/)
