Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. The medicine All 9 in the picture is a supplement and contains L-methylfolate 1 mg, Methylcobalamin 1500 mcg and Pyridoxine 0.5 mg. If your doctor has prescribed All 9 then the medicine in the picture is the right one. It is manufactured by Akumentis.

2. There are other variations of this medicine containing added minerals with slightly different names like All 9 D, All 9 BOH, All 9 BOH, All 9 OC 28S kit, All 9 PIH, All 9 IUGR XXXXXXX All 9 NVP for different conditions.

3. Please use All 9 in the picture if your doctor has prescribed All 9 tablet. You can upload a picture of prescription to confirm.

Hope your query is answered.
