I was talking to a friend of mine who is big into fitness and I asked him what vitamins would be best for over all daily use. He said pregnancy vitamins are the best you can get, but I heard that you can only get them prescribed from a doctor when your pregnant. Is this true, or are there vitamins like these available over the counter? Thanks!

Your friend is right. Prescribed prenatal vits are namebrand and expensive. I usually get the Target brand, those are the only over the counter prenatal vits that Ive found that have the folic acid in them. I have religiously taken a prenatal vitamin alongside my birthcontrol and various other herbs for 16 yrs. They are the best, in my opinion.

I take the generic wal-mart brand prenatel vits they have 800mg of folic acid just as good and i think they are like 4 bucks.

You can get prenatal vitamins in lots of brands. Just look for the ones that contain folic acid in them.

Thank you all for your replies! So I look for folic acid in them...do they have any special kind of name or just "Prenatal Vitamins"? Thanks again everyone!

They will say "Prenatal Vitamins" on the bottle.
