Do you take your prenatal vitamins with food or an empty stomach?

Question

Every time I take my prenatal vitamins on an empty stomach I feel like I will throw up. 
I know in some cases taking pills with food diminishes the potency of the pill. Is it the same with vitamins? 
Lately I’ve been taking them with food 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Try taking them at night before bed

Answer

With food

Answer

Doctor recommends: Prenatals at night before bed and slow-release iron supplement with a glass of OJ in the morning.

Answer

Empty stomach, I have never had any issues.

Answer

Both. It depends, I take them in the morning. Sometimes I’ll take them and go lay back down until I’m hungry for breakfast then other times I take them right before finishing making my breakfast

Answer

With food but not with dairy as it blocks the absorbtion of something in them ...I don't remember what it was but doctor said dairy will block something from being absorbed. So take with any other food.

Answer

I have a cracker or two and take them at bedtime.

Answer

Take them at night after dinner. Pills will tear ur stomach up if you do most on empty stomachs.
