What prenatal are you on?

I went to order a refill and was told that my prenatals are on backorder with no ship date in sight. Chat Icon Chat Icon So they're telling me they'd have to call my dr for a comparable prenatal... but just curious what everyone's on. I don't need them immediately but will need them before I go away. TIA! Chat Icon

This is what I've always taken and been happy with... the softgels. They're on backorder. Chat Icon I'm a little nervous about starting on a new one right when I go on vacation- the metformin already messes w/ my tummy- I don't want to be adjusting to another new medication. Chat Icon Chat Icon

I am not on a prenatal. I just take a folic acid supplement each day.

Re: What prenatal are you on?

GNC brand prenatals.... the prescribed kind are just WAY too expensive- $30 co-pay. Under normal circumstances I would just take them-but with all the other drugs I have to pay $30 co-pays for, it just adds up!

Re: What prenatal are you on?

I was taking "Precare Conceive" until about 2 months ago when my insurance decided it was going to be a $40 copay instead of $25. $25 was expensive enough - $40 was not happening... I switched to Target prenatals for now and I have had NO stomach upset. I am also on metformin which wreaks havoc on my stomach but i know the vitamins are not related b/c i was on them before starting the met.

I would try something OTC for now - save the $ and when you actually get your + HPT then start the good stuff Chat Icon That is what I'm planning on doing...

Re: What prenatal are you on?

Primacare and one other brand were recalled and it's unknown when they will be available again.
My Dr. switched me to Citranatal which have been just fine.

Thanks Gerty- this is what I was told at the pharmacy yesterday. She said that the company that makes Primacare may be getting rid of their pharmacy division.Chat Icon
