How much folic acid in 11 years allowed
How much folic acid a girl of aged 11 years can take in a day. I mean limit for her. Because she had having hair loss. So doctor gave her iron medicine ' Tasiron 15' and zincovit cl. But I wanted to replace zincovit cl with another vitamin supplements containing biotin. But in every supplements there are folic acid. But in tasiron there is folic acid with iron, but in low content. Can total upto 200 mcg folate is allowed for her per day? Please reply
