Key Nutrients for You and Your Baby
Pregnacare Liquid contains a carefully selected blend of vitamins and minerals essential during pregnancy. Here's what you get in each 10 ml dose:
-
Folic Acid (400 mcg): This B vitamin is crucial for the normal development of the fetal nervous system. Australian health authorities recommend 400 mcg daily for women planning pregnancy and during the first trimester.
-
Vitamin D (10 mcg / 400 IU): Supports calcium absorption for developing bones and teeth, and helps maintain your immune health. Many Aussie women have low vitamin D levels, making supplementation especially valuable.
-
Iron: Pregnancy increases your blood volume by nearly 50%, raising the demand for iron. Iron helps carry oxygen to you and your baby and can reduce the risk of anaemia.
-
Vitamin B12: Works with folic acid to support red blood cell formation and nerve function.
-
Vitamin C: An antioxidant that aids iron absorption and supports immune function.
-
Zinc: Important for cell growth and division, which is rapid during fetal development.
All nutrient levels align with recommended dietary intakes, providing a comprehensive foundation without exceeding safe limits. The liquid format also allows for quicker absorption compared to tablets, which is a bonus for mums with sensitive stomachs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Pregnacare Liquid suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, it's suitable for vegetarians. However, always check the label for the latest ingredient information.
Can I take Pregnacare Liquid with other supplements?
Pregnacare Liquid provides a wide range of nutrients, so additional multivitamins are generally not needed. If you require extra vitamin D or iron due to a deficiency, consult your healthcare professional. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
When should I start taking it?

Pregnacare Liquid may contain traces of soy, fish, and other allergens. Always read the full ingredient list on the bottle. If you have severe allergies, speak with your doctor before use.
Always read the label and follow directions for use. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional.
The Importance of Antenatal Nutrition
During pregnancy, your body goes through amazing changes, and proper nutrition becomes more important than ever. A well balanced diet is the foundation, but even the healthiest eaters may have gaps in key nutrients essential for both mother and baby. Antenatal supplements like Pregnacare Liquid help fill those gaps, providing concentrated amounts of vitamins and minerals that support fetal development and maternal health.
Folic acid plays a critical role in the early development of the neural tube, which becomes the baby's brain and spinal cord. Vitamin D is vital for calcium absorption and bone health. Iron supports increased blood volume and helps maintain healthy iron levels. While whole foods should always come first, a reliable antenatal supplement offers an extra layer of nutritional insurance.
Developed by Vitabiotics, a trusted name in nutritional science, Pregnacare Liquid delivers expert nutrition from the moment you start trying to conceive through the entire pregnancy and beyond. Always read the label and use only as directed.
