In most cases for healthy women, lower doses of folic acid is needed, i.e. consider other products such as new obimin.

This can be used for prenatal and antenatal dosage in women where:

• they or their partner have a neural tube defect
• they or their partner have a family history of neural tube defects
• they have had a previous pregnancy affected by a neural tube defect
• they have diabetes
• women who are taking anti-epileptic medication should consult their doctor for advice because they may also need to take a higher dose of folic acid
• any women who for any reason may result higher risk of neural tube defects during pregnancy, consultation with a doctor is recommended i.e. may be considered in women >40, malabsorption disorders, high-risk ethnic groups (eg, Sikh, Celtic, Northern Chinese).

This higher dose should not continue beyond the first trimester of pregnancy.
