You can take the above medication, but you require folic acid 1000mcg minimum in your first 3months. And iron supplement is not a necessity in first 3mnths. So it’s better you choose something with colic acid 1000mcg

Always better to take with doctors consulting

In the first trimester of pregnancy there is always a probability to having hyperacidity due to the hormones and ferrous Fumarate causes gastric irritation, ideally recommended to take this medication in the second trimester.
