I'd like to know where can I buy a chewable pre-natal vitamins ?Do I need a prescription?

Answer 1

I have never found one over the counter. I am pretty sure you need a prescription

Answer 2

One of my cousins isn't able to swallow pills at all.

Her doctor told her it was easier to take two Flintstone's chewables and grind up a folic acid supplement in some applesauce than to get prescription chewables ... just because they're both OTC. Plus our pharmacy here is very small; they usually have to order things that aren't requested every day.

Ask if you could try that. Or if you're taking this for TTC or very early pregnancy ... just do it that way until you get pregnant/see your OB.

Answer 3

Had a nurse say to take two childrens chewable vitamins and they were the same thing. Probably should check the labels and if you are still not sure ask your doctor becuase all women are different.
