PNV-DHA Prenatal Vitamins Description

PNV-DHA + Docusate is a prescription prenatal/postnatal multivitamin/multimineral softgel with DHA. Each softgel is red in color and imprinted with “323” on one side.

OTHER INGREDIENTS

Bovine Gelatin, Glycerin, Soybean Oil, Soy Lecithin, Purified Water, Yellow Beeswax, FD&C Red # 40, Titanium Dioxide, Orange Cream Flavor, Ethyl Vanillin, FD&C Yellow # 6, and FD&C Blue #1. Contains soy.

INDICATIONS

PNV-DHA + Docusate is a multivitamin/mineral prescription dietary supplement indicated for use in improving the nutritional status of women prior to conception, throughout pregnancy, and in the postnatal period for both lactating and nonlactating mothers.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.

Warning

Ingestion of more than 3 grams of omega-3 fatty acids (such as DHA) per day has been shown to have potential antithrombotic effects, including an increased bleeding time and International Normalized Ratio (INR). Administration of omega-3 fatty acids should be avoided in patients taking anticoagulants and in those known to have an inherited or acquired predisposition to bleeding.

Precautions

Folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where vitamin B12 is deficient. Folic acid in doses above 1.0 mg daily may obscure pernicious anemia in that hematologic remission can occur while neurological manifestations progress.

Adverse Reactions

Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid.

CAUTION: Exercise caution to ensure that the prescribed dosage of DHA does not exceed 1 grams (1000 mg) daily.
