Andreafol 0.4 mg 30 tablets
What is AndreaFol and when is it used?AndreaFol with the active ingredient folic acid is a medicine to prevent neural tube defects in the expectant child. These are very rare but serious malformations that involve the embryo's spinal column (the "neural tube") not closing properly. These children then have an open back (“spina bifida”). Many of them remain disabled or unable to live.Medical research has proven that neural tube defects can be practically completely prevented if the mother is provided with an adequate supply of the vitamin folic acid.Various professional medical organizations (including the Swiss Society of Pediatrics and the Swiss Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics) and the Federal Office of Public Health recommend that all women who want to (or could) become pregnant or who have just become pregnant should eat a diet rich in folic acid Take 0.4 mg folic acid daily.Folic acid is particularly important for women who stop taking the pill because they want to have children. Contraceptive hormone preparations reduce folic acid levels in the body and thus increase the risk to the child.What precautions should be taken?Women who have ever given birth to a child with an open back or similar disorders or whose relatives have had such cases should talk to their doctor about it to be on the safe side.When should AndreaFol not be taken/used?In case of hypersensitivity to the active ingredient or one of the excipients according to the composition, or in case of pernicious anemia (a rare form of anemia).When should you be careful when taking/using AndreaFol?Folic acid can weaken the effect of certain anti-seizure medications (epilepsy).Certain anti-seizure (epilepsy) medications can lower folic acid levels.
