I take prenatal multivitamin iron-folic acid 29-1 MG because of the Iron deficiency anemia I have,
Vitamin D due to all the anti-seizure medications I take which lead to bone loss,
cyanocobalamin (a form of B-12) to help its deficiency,
and melatonin to help me fall asleep.
There are many more medications and pills on the list that don’t fall under this category.
