I have Crohn's disease

Hello, Crohn's disease is a special medical condition in which the pharmacist must refer the patient to her doctor.

That being said, the best pregnancy supplement for Crohn's disease would contain 5 mg of folic acid --> Pregvit folic 5 meets these criteria.

A diet rich in folates is also suggested see link (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/pubs/nutrition/folate-fra.php)

Thank you! I have an additional prescription for 5mg of folic acid, and as for food, my diet is very limited because of my Crohn's disease. Almost no fruits and vegetables, always cooked, as little fiber as possible, etc. When I see the doctors they always ask me what brand I take, so I was wondering if some brands have a more interesting composition. Thank you!
