B-Nexa’s new formulation contains 1.22mg of folic acid and 42mg of vitamin B6, in addition to ginger.
"It is well recognized that a woman’s folate intake before and during early stages of pregnancy is critically important," said Gregory Gilmet, MD, MPH, Senior Medical Director, Medical Affairs, Upsher-Smith Laboratories, Inc.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends vitamin B6 as a first-line approach for morning sickness, and also suggests ginger as a non-drug option.
