What are Folic acid tablets?

Folic acid is a type of vitamin, specifically a man-made form of vitamin B9. If you don't get enough vitamin B9 or have trouble absorbing it, you might develop anaemia. Those with anaemia often experience symptoms such as feeling tired, weak, and having headaches.

Taking folic acid increases the amount of B9 in your body. This boost helps your body produce enough red blood cells to manage anaemia. Folic acid is also sometimes used with other medicines that might reduce your folate levels or to help prevent issues during pregnancy.

How do Folic acid tablets work?

If you have a folate deficiency, it means there isn't enough folic acid in your blood. This leads to a shortage of red blood cells, resulting in anaemia. It's crucial to treat anaemia promptly to prevent any complications.

Folic acid is a simple, affordable, and highly effective treatment for folate deficiency anaemia. It increases the folic acid levels in your blood to address your anaemia. This helps alleviate your symptoms, giving you the health and energy to enjoy life to the fullest.

What doses of Folic acid tablets are there?

Folic acid is available in 5mg tablets. How frequently you need to take it generally depends on your blood levels. If you're treating folate deficiency anaemia, you'll typically take one 5mg tablet daily.

If your anaemia gets better, or you're trying to prevent it, you can often reduce your dose to one tablet a week. Folic acid is sometimes given with other medicines to treat anaemia, often alongside iron supplements like ferrous fumarate and ferrous sulfate.

How long does it take Folic acid tablets to work?

Folic acid tablets are absorbed rapidly, typically within a few hours. However, it takes a bit of time for folate levels to increase in your bloodstream and reach normal levels. If you're dealing with folate deficiency anaemia, it might take a few weeks to experience the full benefits of the medication. Nonetheless, you might start to feel a bit better in just a few days.

What should I do if I accidentally take Folic acid tablets incorrectly?

If you forget to take your folic acid at the usual time, simply take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for your next dose, just skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule.

Taking too much folic acid is unlikely to cause harm. However, if you have any concerns, it's a good idea to speak with your clinician. We're here to assist you with any questions or worries. Simply log into your Treated account and send us a message.

How is Folic acid different from other treatments for anaemia?

Folic acid is used to treat folate deficiency anaemia. For iron deficiency anaemia, you would use iron supplements, and for B12 deficiency anaemia, B12 supplements are needed. However, folate deficiency anaemia is specifically treated with folic acid supplements.

You can buy folic acid supplements without a prescription, but they don't have high enough levels to treat folate deficiency anaemia. Additionally, these over-the-counter supplements might not be as strictly regulated as prescription medicines.

Do I need a prescription for Folic Acid?

You'll require a prescription

Folic acid at a 5mg strength is the recommended dose for treating folate deficiency anaemia or preventing birth defects during pregnancy. You can buy folic acid without a prescription, but only in lower doses.

Our healthcare professionals can provide you with a folic acid prescription if it's appropriate for you. Simply share some details about your health with us, and our experts will review them. If folic acid is suitable, we'll deliver it directly to your home, helping you manage your anaemia quickly.

Can I treat a folate deficiency with my diet?

Try adding more foods rich in folate to your diet. Dark green vegetables, beans, liver, and fortified cereals are all excellent sources of folic acid.

If you're deficient, it's advisable to take tablets until the deficiency is resolved. You can also include foods rich in folate in your diet. Although both are forms of vitamin B9, folic acid is more easily absorbed by the body than the folate found in foods.

Important Information

Folic acid isn't right for everyone, and there are a few things you should know before taking it.

Here's all the official information on it. If anything isn't clear, please let our clinician know, and they can discuss it with you.

Actual biltong that is not dried to the point of being jerky
If you are like me, you have ordered biltong as slabs and pre-sliced slabs from a bunch of companies promising the real deal. Too many of those companies trim the fat or dry things out so much that it might as well be American beef jerky with coriander added to the spice blend. This just arrived and we opened the bag not expecting anything different honestly. I am sitting here eating it and logging on to write a review because this is finally the real deal. I wouldn't say that it is wet, but it isn't American jerky level dry either and there is good fat on the pieces. It's pricey, and there was a dry piece or two and a bit of fat that hadn't been properly flavored, but it is the next best thing to a freshly sliced wet and fat slab. If you can afford this treat, don't waste your money on the less expensive stuff -this is what you are missing.

Privacy is what I was looking for and that’s what I got !!!
Color: Black, Size: Wheel-132''
Right now, I am in a shared room and it is perfect because I can block out and have some privacy for my clients. I purchased the six panel and realized it was too much so I was able to only set up three panels and it was just enough room for my clients to walk through to my side, but also have a sense of privacy. It’s not heavy at all very lightweight but durable at the same time. Because of the wheels, I’m able to easily glide it across the floor. This is a really good product. I didn’t need my husband to help me set it up though LOL
