Hi, I am 6 months pregnant and my doctor has given me 10 g Argitas daily, Raricap L 5 ml daily, and Feritas twice a day. I calculated that I am taking 3300 mcg per day of folic acid. My report says that I am anemic. Is this safe?

Youre currently taking 3300 mcg of folic acid per day. While high doses are used in anemia during pregnancy, please have your folate and iron levels checked to tailor the dose better.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a Folic Acid Test Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

My mothers blood test report shows TB IgG reactive. What does this mean? Her Hb level is 6, and she also has an abdominal lump.
