Primacare Prenatals
I take the Primacare Prenatals and there is an AM pill and a PM pill. But, I always forget to take the PM pill. Can I take both of them at the same time?

Re: Primacare Prenatals
I take the same ones and have the same issue; I just try to keep the box out in the morning so when I get home and prepare dinner, it reminds me to take the pm pill. I take it w/ dinner.
Not sure if you can take both at once; it might be overkill on the stomach, but everyone is different.
Sorry I'm not much help.

Re: Primacare Prenatals
Yes, you can. My OB told me this last week, because I was taking the sample packs of the Primacare AM/PM combo and when she asked if I wanted to continue those with a prescription she mentioned that they didn't have to be taken together. Double check with your doc, but mine said it was fine and she actually brought it up.
As a side note, there is a Primacare that is a single pill, but has the same formula as the AM/PM ones - this is what I am taking now (I wasn't a fan of having to take two pills so this is easier). It's a pretty big pill but that's not an issue for me.
HTH!

Definately. I take the same vitamins and had the same problem. I asked my OB what I should do (especially since I read that the pm pill is the one with t he folic acid and more important to take), he said to take them at the same time, that there is absolutely no prolem taking them that way.

Re: Primacare Prenatals
That was the first prenatals my Dr. prescribed me and he told me that I can take them together because it's easy to forget to take the night ones. I loved the vanilla taste to those pills. But unfortunately they made my stomach upset. I tried countless others but they were too strong for my stomach. Now I take Flintstones gummies LOL.

Re: Primacare Prenatals
I'm so glad to hear you can take them together. I might try it, one less thing to worry about doing at night!

Re: Primacare Prenatals
I did not pick those because I knew I would be unreliable to take 2 pills.  My doctor gave me a choice.

Re: Primacare Prenatals
Yes you can
I used to take the Primacare One but it was hard after awhile to swallow.
So now I take the 2 a day type.
I ALWAYS forget that pink one (PM) so badly I have extras!!!
So finally i found out I can take them together in the morning then the pink again in the evening. Thank god
