Can I Take Prenatal Vitamins?

Yes. I took them for years after I had children due to my busy draining schedule, even at my doctor's suggestion.

I do for the very same reason. My doctor said it was okay.

Yes but they are deficient in many categories. I can discuss this with you further if you would like.

absolutely. they are perfectly safe. they are just designed for lactating/preggy women b/c of the extra folic acid and calcium and stuff.

I have been taking them for 4 years. My body needs the extra iron and the folic acid.

Sure you can, but they aren't optimal for your health at this point. What you might consider is to give them away on freecycle.org. I did the same thing and there are always people who want vitamins and supplements of all kinds even if they are already opened. Plus, Freecycle is awesome! Just google 'freecycle san diego' and it should come up. It's a yahoo group. HTH

Yes you can, many women use prenatal for their everyday multi vitamin. I've used them for hair and nails, they are an over all good vitamin.J. L,

Yes. Your body will take what it needs and process the rest (given of course you body is able to absorb and process as necessary). Please know that supplemenation is necessary for health.

It depends on your age and other factors, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you talk to your doctor first. There are higher levels of iron, folate, and zinc in prenatal pills and there is always a risk of toxicity (especially from excess iron) which can damage your liver and kidneys. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/prenatal-vitamins/AN01665

Of course you can. They are basically a minimal multi-vitamin.

yes! trhey are great multi vitamins

Yeah, they aren't harmful to you in any way and it would be sad to waste them.
