When and How to Take Expecta

Some general considerations for when and how to take Expecta Lipil include the following:
 
  • The supplement comes in the form of a softgel. It is taken by mouth once daily.
     
  • It does not matter what time of day you take it. If it seems to make your morning sickness worse when you take it early in the day, try taking it later in the day.
     
  • Expecta Lipil should be swallowed whole and taken with a meal, if possible.
     
  • Let your healthcare provider know if you have trouble keeping Expecta Lipil down or if it causes significant nausea. Your healthcare provider may have some useful suggestions.
     
  • For the supplement to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. It will not work if you stop taking it.
