Over-the-Counter vs Prescription Prenatal Vitamins

Many people wonder if they really need a prescription prenatal vitamin as opposed to an over-the counter formula. We strongly believe that a high quality prescription prenatal vitamin is the best choice for a number of reasons.

The Best Time to Start Taking Prenatal Vitamins

From the time we first began marketing TriCare prenatal vitamins, we have encouraged mothers-to-be to start taking these vitamins before conception when possible. Now results from a study to be published soon in the journal Epidemiology show that we were right.
