Folic acid 5mg side effects

2022-12-14 06:15:06
I am trying to conceive and taking Folic acid 5mg for over 6months now as per doctors suggestion. Is there any side effects associated with it at long term use. My husband and my tests are normal, and doctor suggested to keep trying and take Folic acid. Please suggest that should I stop taking the Folic acid or continue the same.
