Can I take my birth control pill and Materna at the same time?

I would like to know if it is possible to take Materna (folic acid) at the same time as the contraceptive pill. I would like to start taking them 3 months before trying to conceive.

Thank you for your question!

Yes, you can take Materna at the same time as your contraceptive, there is no problem.

I hope I have helped you, and I am available if you have any other questions!
