Thorne Basic Prenatal Multi-Vitamin

Thorne’s Basic Prenatal is specifically formulated with the special needs of conception, pregnancy, and breastfeeding in mind.*

Pre-conception, pregnancy, and nursing are critical times to optimize a mother's health and nutrition, which is important for both for mom and baby. Overall nutritional and caloric needs greatly increase during this time. However, it is often difficult for a woman to fulfill her daily nutrient needs through diet alone. 

Thorne’s Basic Prenatal is specifically formulated with the special needs of conception, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.* Our formula contains well-absorbed, tissue-ready vitamins and minerals that are gentle on the stomach and non-constipating.*

• Provides beneficial nutrients that are important from the moment of conception.

First Trimester

• Folate facilitates healthy brain and spinal cord development.* Basic Prenatal includes the bioactive form of folate – 5-MTHF.
• Vitamins C, B6, and K have been shown to benefit “morning sickness.”*

Second Trimester

• Contains the well-absorbed and well-researched iron bisglycinate to meet a pregnant woman’s increased need for iron. 

Third Trimester

Warnings:

Allergy Warnings

• 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.
• Folinic acid and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as they can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, these folate sources have 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.
