Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.

All9 and ferglow are two different drugs. Ferglow contains iron, folic and vit c. Iron and folic acid are needed for synthesis of blood cells. During pregnancy, blood volume increases by 40% and thus more blood cells have to be synthesis.The increases synthesis requires material needed of which iron and folic acid are parts of the requirement for effective synthesis. Pregnant women generally are obligatorily put on iron and folic acid regimens during pregnancy to compensate for the increase and to prevent anemia in case of postpartum bleeding.

All9 on the other hand contains essential amino acids. Amino acids are the building block of proteins essential amino acids are amino acids not synthesis in the body but highly needed by the body but its not an obligation to take amino acids supplement during pregnancy.

Both drugs can be taken as supplements and can be taken daily

Best regards
Dr Achuo
