8 Weeks Pregnant. Taking Dexorange Syrup For Nutrition. Is It Safe?

Hi,
I am nearly 8 weeks pregnant and have morning sickness. I feel that my diet is very poor and lacking in nutrients needed for a healthy pregnancy. I have started taking dexorange syrup which has iron, folic acid and b12 it also has a very amount of alcohol in it. My question is, is it safe for me to take this syrup?
Would very much appreciate it if someone could get back to me Asap regarding my question.

Regards
Ruth

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Dexorange syrup is an iron supplement. This is prescribed in case of iron deficiency anaemia. It can be take during pregnancy after 14 weeks of pregnancy to increase the iron stores in the body.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
