Vitamin complex prenatal forte composition. What should not be forgotten

Pregnancy - period heightened needs in vitamins and minerals. And it is far from always possible to make up for it with the help of rational nutrition, especially during the period of toxicosis, when food, in principle, is even difficult to see. And in such situations for normal growth and development of the child simply needs additional help in the form of vitamin-mineral complexes.

Since both pregnancies were long-awaited, desired and suffered, then I tried to provide myself and growing kids with everything necessary as much as possible. And if the first pregnancy was "planned" for more than 3 years, then of course, there was no talk of taking vitamins in the preparatory period. I just took the usual Vitrum when needed.

After the cherished confirmation of the first pregnancy, I took the Complivit Mama multivitamin and additionally Iodomarin-200. From the 7th month, I had to additionally connect the iron complex, Gynotardiferon, due to sharp drop hemoglobin levels and previous surgery.

During my second pregnancy, I opted for American vitamins "Vitrum Prenatal Forte" (Vitrum Prenatal forte) for pregnant and lactating women. And I didn't regret my choice for a minute.

This set helped me a lot. difficult period. I did not have the classic toxicosis with nausea and vomiting. I have had complete absence appetite, I just couldn't eat anything. Accordingly, how else could such a sharp deficiency of vitamins be made up for?

General information about vitamins Vitrum Prenatal Forte

You can buy vitamins at any pharmacy without a doctor's prescription. In our country, at one time, vitamins were given out free of charge from a gynecologist, but the condition for obtaining them was living in ecologically unfavorable areas. I didn't get a free giveaway. therefore, I had to buy Vitrum Prenatal Forte for my hard-earned money.

The price of Vitrum Prenatal Forte in pharmacies in Tashkent was (at the time of purchase, a year ago):

Packing of 30 tablets - 55000 soums (about $ 7),
Packing in 100 tablets - 100,000 soums (about $ 13).

Vitamins are sold in our pharmacies in 2 formats - 30 and 100 tablets. There are also packs of 60 and 120 tablets. Moreover, a large jar costs 2 times more, although it contains 3 times more vitamins - it turns out that a large volume is much more profitable.

Vitamins are packed in a large cardboard box, which indicates about general information, basic information about the indications, methods of taking vitamins is given. Inside there is also the usual paper annotation to the drug, which details the main nuances of taking vitamins.

Once again I am amazed at the packaging of American vitamins. The manufacturer is clearly trying by all means to ensure its reliability - the jar is initially packed in thermal film, there is an additional protective membrane under the lid. the lid itself is equipped with a protection mechanism that will not allow young children to unscrew it on their own - a very relevant function when there is a three-year-old inquisitive kid in the house.

The tablets themselves Vitrum Prenatal Forte are oblong in shape. I have already got used to this format, and to a large amount of vitamins. At first it was quite difficult to swallow such a torpedo, but over time it became commonplace and did not cause any difficulties.

Composition of Vitrum prenatal Forte

The complex contains 13 vitamins and 10 minerals. Detailed composition duplicated on the packaging:

One tablet of vitamins Vitrum Prenatal Forte contains the following components:

1. Active ingredients:

2. Auxiliary substances:

3. The composition of the vitamin shell includes the following substances:

I will not dwell on the meaning of each component - there is a lot of this information on the Internet. But such a rich composition and the inclusion in the complex of the most necessary substances for a pregnant and developing baby makes me very happy.

What I especially like about the composition of vitamins is the almost complete coverage of the needs of a pregnant woman. Particularly pleased with the inclusion iodine and iron- In my first pregnancy, I had to buy these drugs additionally, but here the need has disappeared completely.

Indications for the use of vitamins Vitrum for pregnant and lactating

Main indications for use:

Prevention and treatment of hypovitaminosis and deficiency minerals in preparation for pregnancy, during pregnancy and the postpartum period;
Prevention of iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women, calcium deficiency in the mother's body.

I am quite wary of the uncontrolled intake of vitamins - after all, I adhere to the generally accepted position that a lack of vitamins is better than their overabundance. But the period of pregnancy is an exception, when a sufficient intake of biologically active substances is very important. active components.Especially if the pregnancy period falls on autumn-winter-spring (as it was with me).

Competent preparation for pregnancy is equally important. It is necessary to approach this issue very carefully, having passed a thorough medical examination and treating the existing shortcomings. For example, I have certain problems with the thyroid gland, so when planning, I underwent an ultrasound and a hormonal study. Gynecologists advise to start taking multivitamin complexes just in this period - at the moment active training to pregnancy.

Why is a sufficient intake of vitamins and minerals during pregnancy so important and what consequences can a deficiency of certain components lead to?

Decreased chance of formation congenital pathologies.
A sufficient amount of vitamins contributes to proper development of all organs and structures developing fetus(especially nervous system and brain).
Decreased severity toxicosis and eliminate it Negative consequences.
The pregnancy itself is easier and the likelihood of its pathological course is reduced.
Immunity increases- thus very vulnerable to viral diseases the woman's body receives additional protection.
Many diseases are prevented development of anemia, problems with bones and teeth.
A sufficient amount of vitamin complexes supports milk production at breastfeeding and saturates it with useful components.
Makes you look good during pregnancy stops hair loss, brittle nails, improves skin condition.

The influence of systemic vitamins on the process of pregnancy is very important:

The effectiveness of VITRUM PRENATAL FORTE was confirmed as a means of preventing placental insufficiency, toxicosis, anemia, threatened miscarriage, viral infections occurring during pregnancy

How to take? The course of treatment and dosage for pregnant women

In any case, before taking even harmless vitamins, a pregnant woman you need to consult with your doctor m. For example, if a woman has an excess of hormones thyroid gland, then an additional intake of drugs with an iodine content (and in Vitrum Prenatal Forte its 150 mcg) is highly undesirable.

Therefore, you do not need to thoughtlessly go to the pharmacy for vitamins, guided by the principle - all pregnant women are prescribed, which means I need it too.

Vitrum Prenatale Forte is prescribed BEFORE, DURING and AFTER pregnancy. With absence urgent need(rational nutrition, absence of toxicosis) this can be coursework for a month.

During pregnancy, I drank them almost constantly, since there was absolutely no appetite, and after 10 weeks I began a period of protracted illness.

Contraindications for admission

Overdose

Overdose symptoms:

Interaction with other drugs

The drug contains iron and calcium and therefore can delay the absorption in the intestine of antibiotics from the tetracycline group, as well as antimicrobial agents- derivatives of fluoroquinolones.

Vitamin C enhances the action and side effects antimicrobial agents from the group of sulfonamides (including the appearance of crystals in the urine).

Antacids containing aluminum, magnesium, calcium, and cholestyramine reduce iron absorption.

With the simultaneous appointment of diuretics from the group of thiazides, the likelihood of hypercalcemia increases.

Side effects

Possible allergic reactions on the components of the drug.

Possibly intense coloration of urine yellow, which is not dangerous, as it is due to the presence of riboflavin in the composition of the drug.

The multivitamin complex was well tolerated by me. I did not notice a critical and so noticeable staining of urine, maybe because I drank a lot of liquid.

Personal feelings when taking vitamins

My second pregnancy was very difficult. At week 10, I suffered from acute sinusitis, it was a long recovery period. My nose did not breathe until the very birth, I continued to constantly get sick. There was no appetite at all (however, like nausea), I had to just shove food into myself in order to somehow maintain strength. As a result, in the first 6 months of pregnancy, I lost almost 7 kg (from the initial weight).

Vitrum Prenatale Forte I drank regularly, throughout pregnancy(I can’t boast of a super-mode, of course, sometimes I missed a reception, but it was rare). I can say unequivocally - these vitamins certainly made up for the deficiency of vitamins and minerals.

The only catch is that, as we know, in order for vitamins to be absorbed, they need transport in the form of food. That is, if you don’t eat anything, then drinking the complex is useless. That is why I drank Vitrum in the morning, when at least something else climbed into me.

Yes, fantastic effect in the form of strong immunity, chic appearance and there were no other amenities. But who knows, maybe if I didn’t take additional vitamins, the state it would be even worse?

Let's go over the main external indicators:

Hair did not fall much - but they just stopped growing. At all. That is, I cut my hair literally before pregnancy to the shoulders, with the same hairstyle I went to give birth - my hair grew by less than 2 cm. The start of growth began 3-4 months after childbirth after many different procedures.
Nails have always been my problem. But during pregnancy, they began to bend in the opposite direction, even cut to the root - and this caused me a lot of inconvenience.
Skin - I have never been so pimply as during my second pregnancy. Even as a teenager. I was sprinkled everywhere, and if I somehow managed to cope with my face, then I had ATAS with my shoulders and back, which went well after childbirth.
Teeth. After the first birth, I lost 2 teeth at once and had to treat a bunch. Oddly enough, the second pregnancy in this regard had less effect on their condition. But besides Vitrum, I additionally drank calcium citrate, maybe this is a merit?
Anemia. I want to dwell on this point in more detail. In my first pregnancy, I had a severe drop in hemoglobin, which required an additional dose iron-containing preparation. This time the hemoglobin level was stable and did not fall below 100. I think this is Vitrum's merit.

Vitrum Prenatale Forte while breastfeeding

I continued to drink the drug after childbirth. And now I feel his support more clearly. It fully covers my needs for vitamins and minerals, so I'm happy with the effect. And even after the terrible side effects, which were noted after taking hormonal contraceptives Lactinet, I managed to recover quite quickly.

Conclusion

Vitrum prenatale Forte - good and enough full complex for pregnant and lactating women. But it must be remembered that this is not panacea , which will save your hair, teeth and skin from such a sharp hormonal change.

I can unequivocally say that there were quite a lot of benefits from the reception for me, this complex helped me to survive not the easiest segment of my life. Therefore, I recommend it with a clear conscience, but only in consultation with your doctor.

Vitrum prenatal - a complex of vitamins, macro- and microelements. Designed to prevent hypovitaminosis and lack of minerals during pregnancy and lactation. Contains the entire set of "amines of life" and minerals necessary for a pregnant woman, fetus and newborn child. Riboflavin (vitamin A) regulates the production of vital enzymes and has favorable influence for development muscle tissue. It regulates hormonal levels, participates in the synthesis of the immune protein interferon, epithelial cells, normalizes the state of the inner shell of the eye, being responsible for the so-called. twilight vision. Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) affects protein metabolism and regulates calcium and phosphorus levels. It provides better absorption of calcium in digestive tract and subsequent accumulation in growth zones. Calcium deficiency is dangerous due to the possible deterioration of the bones of the mother, the future, and then already born child. Cholecalciferol is useful not only during pregnancy, but also during breastfeeding until its very end. Tocopherol (vitamin E) improves the rheological characteristics of blood, ensures the elimination of toxins and decay products from the body, strengthens the walls of blood vessels, stimulates blood circulation, which is especially important during pregnancy, because. at this time, the volume of circulating blood increases in a woman, reaching a peak by 7 months, requiring more resources to maintain the proper intensity of blood circulation. A lack of tocopherol can cause circulatory disorders in the capillary bed, which negatively affects not only the mother, but also the growing fetus. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is actively involved in redox reactions, is in demand in the synthesis of the structural protein collagen, promotes tissue repair, increases immune status, promotes the absorption of iron in the digestive tract.

Vitamin C deficiency leads to impaired permeability vascular wall suppression of the secretion of steroid hormones. Folic acid is an essential component of any vitamin and mineral complex for pregnant women. She provides normal development nervous system of the fetus, preventing the formation of congenital pathologies. Thiamine (vitamin B1) is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, prevents the shift acid-base balance to the "sour" side, thereby providing normal work organs and systems. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) provides cellular respiration and helps pyridoxine (vitamin B6) to pass into active form. Pyridoxine, in turn, is a participant in most metabolic processes, a supplier of iron in Bone marrow, regulator of the CNS. Cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) prevents the destruction of the walls of red blood cells, controls the process of transformation of parenchymal cells into body fat thus preventing excessive weight gain while expecting a baby. Nicotinamide (vitamin PP) is an active participant in the formation of proteins and lipids. In addition, it prevents thrombosis. Calcium is required in the formation of bone tissue, ensures the normal absorption of iron and nerve conduction. Iron is used by the body as an oxygen carrier to cells, a catalyst for redox reactions. Zinc is involved in the synthesis of bone cells and the regulation of hormonal balance.
