Are there any benefits in taking Elevit right through pregnancy?
Elevit, in conjunction with a healthy diet, helps meet the increased nutritional
requirements that occur throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding. There is an increased
requirement for iron during pregnancy, and Elevit can help prevent dietary iron
deficiency. Likewise, there is an increased need for folate throughout pregnancy,
with the majority of deficiencies occurring in the third trimester. Other vitamins
and minerals that are required at higher levels throughout pregnancy include zinc,
calcium, vitamin C, B6 and B12.
How do I take Elevit?
Elevit is a once-daily tablet that can be taken at anytime of the day. It is also
easy to halve or crush the tablet to make it easier to swallow.
