Precautions & Disclaimer
- Vitamin B12 Masking: High, unmonitored doses of folic acid can mask an underlying Vitamin B12 deficiency (pernicious anemia) by correcting blood counts while allowing nerve damage to progress. If you suffer from chronic fatigue, consult a doctor to evaluate both B12 and folate levels.
- Medication Interactions: Folic acid supplements can lower the effectiveness of certain anti-seizure medications (like phenytoin) and specific therapies like methotrexate. Always inform your doctor about all supplements you are taking.
