Prescription vs. OTC Prenatals?

Which do you take? I have been taking a regular OTC prenatal but was wondering if it makes sense to take a prescription which is not covered by my insurance...couldnt I just take my OTC that has a DHA supplement???

Just ask the OB/Peri... depends on if there are 2 in there or not Chat Icon
My friend's ob told her that the OTC with DHA were enough. My Peri likes citranatal assure.

I use CVS brand and when I brought them to both the RE and my OB/GYN they said they were fine...I also take extra Folic Acid 1mg and sometimes C when Im run down...
