Re: Pre-Natal
They're the CVS Brand.
I hope they're alright to take. They say Prenatal Vitamins so I would think they're all the same. Am I wrong?

This is what I am. What insurance do you have??? If you have a mail away prescription plan (most do) it is worth it. We have Cigna

Re: Pre-Natal
I was paying $25 for my prescription then looked into the Target Brand OTC. I compared the two and you know what the OTC brand had way more Folic, and was identical or very close to the other vitamins so I started using those. 100 tablets for like 6 bucks. I love Target.

There are plenty of OTC prenatals that have the required amount of folic acid for pregnancy (800mcg). I take the rite aid brand and just paid $8 for about 250 pills. I also take a DHA supplement called Expecta. My ob said that the combination of these two was just as good as any premium prescription prenatal.

I have oxford and yes, they have a mail away prescription plan. You just need to see if they have the preate you're on. Most likely they have it but in the event that they don't you can talk to your doc and see if he/she can change the RX to a vitamin you're covered for.

Yes, call them & inquire about the pharmacy plan. See if they have some sort of mail away plan...If so, definately use it...
