Prenate Elite (Cont.)

When and How to Take Prenate Elite

Some general considerations for when and how to take Prenate Elite include the following:
 
  • Prenate Elite comes in the form of a tablet. It is taken by mouth once daily.
     
  • It does not matter what time of day you take Prenate Elite prenatal vitamins. If they seem to make your morning sickness worse, try taking them later in the day.
     
  • Prenate Elite can be taken with food or on an empty stomach. The iron in Prenate Elite may be better absorbed on an empty stomach, but most women find that taking prenatal vitamins with a little bit of food usually helps with stomach upset.
     
  • Let your healthcare provider know if you have trouble keeping Prenate Elite down or if it causes significant nausea. Your healthcare provider may have some useful suggestions or may recommend a different prenatal vitamin.
     
  • For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. Prenate Elite will not work if you stop taking it.
