Designed as a comprehensive prenatal multivitamin for pregnancy, Thorne Basic Prenatal combines essential vitamins and minerals in carefully selected, bioavailable forms. It is particularly suited to women looking for a prenatal vitamin with folate, choline and iron, whether preparing for pregnancy, progressing through the different trimesters or requiring continued nutritional support while breastfeeding.
During pre-conception and the first trimester, Basic Prenatal provides folate as 5-MTHF, the bioactive form of folate, alongside choline. Folate supports healthy fetal development, while choline provides important nutritional support for the developing brain and nervous system.
As nutritional requirements increase during pregnancy, the formula provides iron as ferrous bisglycinate chelate, along with vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, iodine, zinc, selenium, B vitamins and other essential micronutrients. Thorne formulates Basic Prenatal with highly absorbable nutrient forms designed to provide comprehensive nutritional support through the changing stages of pregnancy and nursing.
Basic Prenatal is made without unnecessary coatings and provides a comprehensive nutrient profile in a convenient capsule format. It is gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free.

ALLERGY WARNING
This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.
Iodine may occasionally cause an allergic reaction in some individuals.
PREGNANCY
If pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product.
INTERACTIONS
As vitamin K interferes with the effect of anticoagulant drugs (like Coumadin), the concurrent use of these agents should be avoided.
5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under six. Keep this product out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or poison control center immediately.
Vitamin C can cause diarrhea in some individuals in large doses, which can vary from person to person and resolves when the amount is reduced.
