Re: Anyone take Citracal Prenatal vitamins?

I take Citracal with DHA prenatals - I assume those are the ones you are talking about - it is 2 pills. I have been taking them since August and have had no problems with them. I used to take them at night so if they did bother me I wouldn't notice - but I now take them in the morning and have no issues at all with them. They have a mild stool softener which is helpful if you need it.

I was taking a one a day women's before I started these but I should add I never had a problem taking vitamins before either.

I wonder if some people who are sensative to prenatals used to not regularly take vitamins and wonder if that might be the difference?

I've been on them forever. My OBGYN started me on them when we started TTC waaay back in October 2004.

As long as I take them at night I have no issues.

I take the Citracal with DHA also and I love them. I was on them with my last PG too. I dont have any problems with them and they make me regular which I like because I wasn't before.

I used to take the citrical w/colace (it has 50mg in it) Turns out I never had an issue with constipation so I stopped taking them because they were giving me the opposite problem Chat Icon
