Question
Is a pregnant woman allowed to take prenatal vitamins that contain kitniyot (but not chametz) on Pesach?
Answer
Shalom
If these medications are necessary and there is no kitniyot free option then they can be taken. In most cases a woman can refrain from taking the vitamins for a week with no detrimental results.
