Can I take Autrin as an iron supplement at 17 weeks pregnant, and which calcium supplements would you recommend for me?

Asked by Female, 24 · 9 days ago

Yes, Autrin (which contains iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12) is commonly used during pregnancy, but please consult your obstetrician to ensure the dosage safely fits your prenatal routine. For calcium, generic calcium carbonate or calcium citrate are excellent, highly recommended options. To ensure your body absorbs both minerals effectively, please take your calcium supplement at least two hours apart from your Autrin, as calcium can interfere with iron absorption.
