Does All 9 Tablet Contain 5mg Of Folic Acid?

I am 4-5 weeks pregnant. Doctor has advised me to take one All9 tablet daily. I asked her about folic acid and she mentioned that All9 tablet contains Folic acid as well. However, in the composition of this tablet it does not list Folic Acid. Can you please advice if All9 contains Folic Acid? And if it does, in what quantity? I have read somewhere that 5mg of Folic Acid is needed per day. Does 1 tablet of All9 contain 5mg of folic acid?

Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

All-9 contains 9 essential amino acids in superior free form state.
Amino acids are required to build the proteins which are essential for the function of the cells, tissue repairs, synthesis of enzymes etc. These are prescribed in pregnancy as in pregnancy the need for amino acids increase as for both baby and mother needs to be satisfied.
Along withthem it also contains Methylcobalamin-1500 mcg, Methyl folate-1 mg & Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate-0.5 mg.

Methyl folate is different form of folic acid & equivalent to folic acid & there is nothing to worry.

Don't worry you would be fine
Hoping your query is solved.
