need advice

My dr discontinued my folvite medicine and has prescribed obimin multivitamin capsules instead of that. But on its ingredients its not mentioned that it contains folvic acid too with other vitamins. I have read that folic acid should be taken for all 9months... Can anyone advice for the same? I m 18 weeks ftm. Thnx in advance :)

You can ask your doctor to prescribe a folic acid tablet or pick them up at the drug store yourself. I'd say if its not listed, its not included and from what I've heard, the more Holocaust acid, the better. :)
