Its use is advised for women planning pregnancy or who are pregnant, starting at least four weeks prior to conception and continuing for the first three months of pregnancy. Consult your doctor for personalized advice.
Preclinical studies using Qfol 5mg Tablets show that excessive doses alongside a high-fat diet may cause weight gain and fat accumulation, but this effect wasn't observed with normal or low-fat diets, even with overdosing.

Adequate folic acid levels before conception significantly lower the risk of neural tube defects in the baby.
