A prenatal multivitamin is used to supplement vitamins and minerals that may be needed during pregnancy. Its ingredients and amounts vary by product, so check the package to see what a particular prenatal multivitamin provides.
You can start a prenatal multivitamin while trying to conceive or as soon as you learn you are pregnant. Some nutrients matter very early in pregnancy, so follow the product directions rather than waiting for a later trimester.
Taking a prenatal multivitamin with a meal may be easier on your stomach. Follow the directions on the specific product’s package, especially if they give instructions about taking it with or without food.
Yes, a prenatal multivitamin can cause nausea in some people. Taking it with food may help; if nausea is severe or continues, ask a healthcare professional before changing how you use it.
Do not take a double dose of a prenatal multivitamin to make up for a missed one. Follow the product’s instructions for missed doses, or ask a pharmacist if the directions are unclear.
Only combine a prenatal multivitamin with extra folic acid or other supplements after checking the ingredients: nutrients can overlap, and excessive amounts may be harmful. Ask a healthcare professional to review your full supplement list.
Store a prenatal multivitamin according to its package directions, usually in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep it in its original container and out of reach of children.
Yes, a prenatal multivitamin can be started while trying to conceive. Starting before pregnancy can help ensure key nutrients are available early; follow the package directions and avoid doubling up with other supplements.
Not every prenatal multivitamin is intended for breastfeeding. Check whether the product’s directions include use during lactation; if they do not, ask a healthcare professional before continuing it.
No, a prenatal multivitamin does not prevent all birth defects. Getting enough folic acid before conception and early in pregnancy can lower the risk of some neural tube defects; check the product’s folic acid content.

A prenatal multivitamin is a vitamin-and-mineral supplement intended for use during pregnancy, rather than a food or meal replacement. It is sold in a single-dose form, with the ingredients and directions given on the product label.
It is commonly taken with a meal and water, following the label’s instructions. The nutrition figures are listed per 100 g, so they do not describe the small amount usually taken at once. If you are pregnant, ask a healthcare professional whether this product is suitable for you, and check with them before combining it with other supplements.
Very high
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Low
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
