Hi,
You have not written the reason for the prescription.
Is it pregnancy?
You have to swallow it with water.
It is to be taken once per day only.Better to take at same time-either morn or evening.
You can take it either before or after meals.
Wish u good health.

Dear,please swallow the tablet with water.This needs to be swallow to be effective.Even if it is a vitamin do not take without advise from any doctor.Other thing this vitamin is normally given to all the pregnant mothers for the first 3 months to prevent congenital defect in the baby.So do not worry about the same.You will not have any problem.Buy and all the best.
