Does folic acid make you feel sick?

[xJodieLoux]

When I take my folic acid it makes me feel so sick Does anybody else feel like that?

It doesn't affect me hunny.

Do you take folic acid straight or is it a pre pregnancy vitamin? Also you shouldn't take any vitamin or supplement on an empty stomach, any
one can have a sensitivity to a supplement hope this helps Rachx

It's a pre pregnancy multivitamin. It make's me feel sick wether I take it on an empty stomach or not, makes me feel dizzy aswell.

it might not be the folic acid chick it might be the iron or vit c i suggest trying some just folic acid pills see if they help you should get the rest of the stuff from a balanced diet any how and theyre cheaper than the pre preg stuff

It's never made me feel sick hun. But them again I just take it on it's own and not as a pre-pregnancy supplement. It could be one of the other things in there hun.

I use sanatogen pro-natal, which is a multivitamin with folic acid...and strangely enough, when i take it it makes me feel v. queasy, i have been sick a couple of times (which i mistaken for morning sickness..only to be dissapointed lol)..i might just try the folic acid!xx

Laura it was sanatogen pro-natal that made me feel sick too. I got some boots own brand folic acid and took one this morning and I was fine.
