Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Folic acid is important during pregnancy especially in the early stages to help with the development of the spine and brain.
Since it is difficult to use the tablet in some persons, you can use a liquid.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James
