PrimaCare one (Enchanced Formula)- anyone take them?

I have been on Primacare one for the past 6 months and loved them, no problems. Last week my DH went to pick up my RX and it was out of stock. We tried another Pharmacy (CVS) and they said that the company changed the formula very slightly bc the drug was about to go generic. (so I know that drug company will chaneg one thing in their drugs so as not to lose the patent).

The pharmcist said it was very similiar (didnt need a new RX bc the name of the drug didnt change) it is just enchanced.

I noticed that their are more vitamins in it when I compare it to the old one and I also have been so much more sick since taking them. Can it be a coincidence???Chat Icon Chat Icon

Anyone notice increase in nausea with this new formula?

I use primacare one but I get a three month supply so I haven't gotten a new one in a while. I'd like to hear the responses though for future reference!

I take these and I just filled my prescription about a week ago at CVS. I got a 3 month supply no problem.

I am also on the "New" Primacare one.
I have been feeling the same.
I take it right before bed. Always have.
With my 1st pregnancy I was on Duet and taking them in the AM made me naseous, so, I heard taking them at night helps a lot more..Definitley does.

I was switched to the "new" PrimaCare as well. I haven't noticed any differences.

I'm also taking them and I noticed if I take them in the am, it makes me a bit more nauseous so now I take them at night.
As far as the difference in price, did the amount of pills dispensed changed? That's quite a change if you are using the same insurance.

I am taking the generic Primacare One vitamins and so far, no problems. I can still take them in the morning. The kicker though, I still pay $80 for a three month supply. Wouldn't you think that the generic would be cheaper?

OMG Yes - When I was at my last appt. I asked the dr. if I could try a new prenatal because I felt that I was feeling sick taking the new formula and they were really bothering my stomach.

The dr. office gave me samples of a ton of new vitamins, they told me to try them out and I could have them call in which ever one I chose.
