Took Folbic Tablet To Treat Clotting Disorder. Any Reason For Not Taking Appropriate Folic Acid, B6 And B12?
I take prescription Folbic tablet to treat a clotting disorder. It contains folic acid, b6, and b12. Is there any reason I could not just take the appropriate folic acid, b6 and b12 as vitamin supplements? Insurance does not cover Folbic and thus would be cheaper to purchase the individual supplements.
