Faa20 tablet usage
Hello!
My doctor prescribed Faa20 tablet which is Iron,Zinc& B12tablet when I was pregnant which happened to be a miscarriage later on. Now while trying for pregnancy can I use the same tablet to improve those contents in my body? Do I have to take it alone and leave folic acid for sometime? Can I use this daily one tablet for a month and switch to folic acid after 1 month?
When is the right time to take this tablet?

Folic acid and iron are both important as you plan pregnancy, so it's good you're thinking ahead. The exact switch and timing between this tablet and folic acid depends on your current iron and B12 levels, best checked with your doctor.
Next Steps
Ask your doctor for a repeat blood test before you start trying, so the right combination and duration can be planned for you.
Health Tips
Given your earlier miscarriage, please don't self-adjust the dose; a preconception check-up can also flag anything else worth addressing first.
