Is it safe that I have been accidentally taking Fol 123 capsules (which contain 5 mg of folic acid, 200 mg of DHA, and 1 mcg of vitamin B12) for 20 days instead of the prescribed Fol 123 tablets to prepare for pregnancy, and should I stop taking them?

Accidentally taking Fol 123 capsules instead of tablets for 20 days is not harmful. The capsules contain folic acid, DHA, and vitamin B12, which are all highly beneficial when preparing for pregnancy. Folic acid is water-soluble, meaning your body safely eliminates any excess. To align with your original plan, you can stop taking the capsules now and switch to your prescribed Fol 123 tablets. Just let your doctor know about this brief switch at your next appointment.
