What happens if I don't get enough folic acid during pregnancy?

Your baby is more likely to have neural tube defects if you do not get enough folic acid before and during pregnancy. Neural tube defects are serious birth defects that can cause death by affecting the spine, spinal cord, or brain.

Can I take Q4LIC Tablet on my own?

Q4LIC Tablet should be taken as recommended by the doctor. Your doctor will specify the right dose and duration based on your medical condition.

How can I manage Folic acid/folate deficiency?

Folate deficiency occurs when your body lacks adequate folic acid/folate levels. You can overcome this deficiency by including food sources rich in folic acid like broccoli, sprouts, leafy green vegetables, cabbage, kale, spring greens, spinach, peas, chickpeas, kidney beans, and breakfast cereals fortified with folic acid. If your folic acid levels are still low, your doctor may suggest supplements.

Should I take any precautions before using Q4LIC Tablet ?

It is important to tell your doctor if you have malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food) since it may be hard to absorb vitamins through oral administration. Your doctor may suggest other dosage forms in such a case.

What if I miss a dose?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and follow your usual dosage.
