Question
Hello,
I Baruch Hashem am expecting my first child! With Pesach coming I am worried I will need to stop taking my prenatal supplements (calcium-Mag and multi) as they are not kosher for Pesach and I have not found an alternative. May I continue to take them? Please note that I have had one miscarriage in the past and it has been a really nesayon to get pregnant for us. Please kindly advise as soon as possible. Thank you!
Aliza
Answer
Shalom U'verachah,
In most cases not taking this supplement for a week will have no adverse affect on the pregnancy. There are also vitamins that are Kosher for Pesach.
If there is a medical condition that requires taking this medication then you should consult a Rav who may permit it to be taken if this is the case.
I hope that you will feel well.
