Femibion ​​tablets for pregnant women 1. Femibion ​​® Natalcare I (Femibion ​​® Natalcare I). Femibion ​​- instructions for use


Femibion ​​is a vitamin and mineral complex intended for use from the period of pregnancy planning until the end of breastfeeding. Available in the form of capsules and tablets for oral use.

Pharmacological action of Femibion

The vitamin complex consists of two types of the drug: Femibion ​​1 and Femibion ​​2.

According to the instructions, the active ingredients of Femibion ​​1 and 2 tablets are folic acid, L-methylfolate (metafolin), vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12, C, E, biotin, pantothenic acid, nicotinamide, iodine.

Excipients are iron oxide, magnesium salts of fatty acids, glycerin, titanium dioxide, hydroxypropylcellulose, corn starch, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, maltodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose.

The active ingredients of Femibion ​​2 capsules are docosahexaenoic acid, vitamin E and concentrated fish oil. Excipients: glycerin, modified starch, sorbitol, mono- and diglycerides of edible fatty acids, maltitol.

Folic acid is a vital vitamin for every expectant mother. It has a positive effect on the course of pregnancy and the development of the child - both in utero and after birth. Once in the body, folic acid is transformed into a biologically active form. Metafolin is a biologically active form of folate, making it absorbed more easily and quickly than folic acid.

The microelements that make up Femibion, according to the instructions, have the following properties:

  • Vitamin B1 takes part in energy supply and carbohydrate metabolism;
  • Vitamin B2 activates energy metabolism in the body;
  • Vitamin B6 ensures protein metabolism;
  • Vitamin B12 normalizes the functions of the nervous system and hematopoiesis;
  • Vitamin C promotes the formation of connective tissue, improves the absorption of iron and enhances the body's protective functions;
  • Vitamin E is necessary to protect cells from the effects of free radicals;
  • Pantothenic acid plays an important role in metabolism;
  • Biotin ensures healthy skin;
  • Iodine takes part in the functioning of the thyroid gland;
  • Nicotinamide supports the body's protective properties.

Femibion ​​compensates for the lack of vitamins and microelements necessary for mother and child. The drug promotes normal planning and course of pregnancy. For pregnant women, Femibion ​​is also prescribed to correct the nutrient balance (nutrient balance).

Indications for use of Femibion

Femibion ​​1 is recommended for women planning pregnancy. It is also prescribed in the early stages up to and including the 12th week of pregnancy as an additional source of vitamins, folic acid, iodine, pantothenic acid, nicotinamide and biotin.

Femibion ​​2 is prescribed from the 13th week of pregnancy until the end of the breastfeeding period.

Methods of using Femibion ​​and dosage

Femibion ​​2 is taken orally, 1 tablet and 1 capsule, with water, once a day during the main meal. It is advisable that the capsule and tablet be taken simultaneously. The sequence does not affect the effectiveness of the drug.

Side effects of Femibion

Contraindications to the use of Femibion

Femibion ​​is not prescribed to women who have individual intolerance or hypersensitivity to the components of the supplement.

Femibion ​​overdose

In reviews of Femibion ​​there is no information about an overdose of this drug.

Additional Information

The drug is not a drug, but before you start using it, you should consult your doctor.

The instructions for Femibion ​​indicate that tablets and capsules should be stored in a dark, cool, dry place out of reach of children.

Available from pharmacies over the counter.

The shelf life of Femibion ​​is 2 years.

During pregnancy, the woman’s body’s need for nutrients increases, because now it needs to take care of the growth and timely development of the fetus. Therefore, doctors never tire of repeating to expectant mothers the importance of good nutrition and taking vitamin complexes. But you need to think about this not after conception has occurred, but at the planning stage. The drug Femibion ​​is designed for women who are just about to become mothers and who are already carrying their baby.

What is Femibion?

Femibion ​​Natalker is a biologically active food supplement (dietary supplement) produced by the German pharmaceutical company Merck Group. Its purpose is to provide a woman with the vitamins necessary for successfully bearing a child. Therefore, the composition of the drug includes:

  • vitamin C (calcium ascorbate);
  • vitamin PP (nicotinamide);
  • vitamin E (α-tocopherol acetate);
  • vitamin B 5 (pantothenic acid);
  • vitamin B 6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride);
  • vitamin B 2 (riboflavin);
  • vitamin B 1 (thiamine nitrate);
  • vitamin B 9 (folic acid);
  • L-methylfolate;
  • iodine (potassium iodide);
  • vitamin B 7 (biotin);
  • vitamin B 12 (cyanocobalamin).

All of them are very important for a woman who wants to become a mother. They increase immunity, improve health, the functioning of the nervous, circulatory, reproductive and other systems, and the functioning of the digestive tract. And also, importantly, necessary for the normal development of the fetus.

Some women are embarrassed when they find out that Femibion ​​Natalker is a dietary supplement. But in essence, this drug is a multivitamin complex, and its classification in the pharmaceutical classification as biologically active additives is explained by the fact that in Germany, where it is produced, all such drugs are classified as dietary supplements, and not medicines. With the introduction of Femibion ​​to the Russian market, this classification did not change.

A pregnant woman's need for vitamins increases, so doctors recommend that expectant mothers take additional vitamin complexes

Types of Femibion

Femibion ​​Natalker dietary supplement is available in two versions:


Femibion ​​1 and 2 are not two separate drugs, but a complex of vitamins that are taken sequentially.

Table: comparative characteristics of the drugs Femibion ​​Natalker 1 and Femibion ​​Natalker 2

Femibion ​​Natalker 1 Femibion ​​Natalker 2
Application area Recommended for women of reproductive age who are planning to become pregnant or are in the early stages of bearing a baby.Recommended for pregnant women from the 13th week of gestation until the very end of breastfeeding.
What is included in the drug 30 tablets containing vitamins necessary for a pregnant woman.
  • 30 tablets containing vitamins necessary for a pregnant woman;
  • 30 capsules, which additionally include:
    • docosahexaenoic acid (a substance belonging to the group of omega-3 fatty acids);
    • vitamin E.
Differences Contains a basic set of vitamins, including folic acid, necessary for the proper formation of the fetus in the womb in the 1st trimester of pregnancy.Contains more vitamin E compared to Femibion ​​1, since a woman’s need for it increases in the second trimester. Also includes omega-3 fatty acids, which are necessary for the proper development of the fetal brain.

Contraindications and side effects

The only contraindication to the drug, which is indicated in the instructions, is individual intolerance to the components of the composition. But despite this, you should only drink it as prescribed by a doctor. In addition, the vitamin complex should not act as a substitute for a nutritious diet, so it is important for an expectant or nursing mother to take care of a balanced diet despite taking dietary supplements.

There are many different opinions about the benefits of synthetic vitamins for the human body, including during pregnancy. I am a mother of two children, and I believe that vitamins should be obtained from food, primarily fresh vegetables and fruits. I consider taking vitamin complexes justified only if, after blood tests, a deficiency of one or another vitamin in the body is confirmed.

A pregnant woman needs to eat right, include a variety of healthy foods in her diet, and not just rely on complexes of synthetic vitamins

As a rule, taking Femibion ​​does not cause side effects. In case of individual intolerance, allergic reactions may occur. Also, some women report the appearance of nausea after starting to use the drug or increased symptoms of toxicosis.

Femibion ​​contains not only vitamins, but also 150 mcg of iodine, which is 75% of a pregnant woman’s daily requirement. Therefore, taking other vitamin-mineral complexes, iodine preparations, and folic acid can lead to an overdose. Be sure to tell your doctor if you are taking additional vitamins or dietary supplements. The specialist will select the optimal dosage regimen

Features of application

Femibion ​​vitamins are taken orally. The tablet should be swallowed whole with water, during meals or immediately after meals. The vitamin complex Femibion ​​2 is supplemented with a transparent capsule, which is taken along with the tablet.

The Femibion ​​tablet is small in size and colored light pink.

The instructions for the drug recommend taking 1 tablet (1 tablet + 1 capsule for Femibion ​​2) once a day. As a rule, doctors recommend the same dosage to women, since it is designed specifically for the needs of the body of expectant mothers and allows them to receive all the necessary daily vitamins.

Structural and functional analogues allowed during pregnancy

In addition to Femibion, modern medicine offers many other vitamin and mineral complexes for expectant mothers. At the same time, there is no complete analog (a drug with exactly the same composition) of the German dietary supplement on the market.

The most popular among women are:

  • Vitrum Prenatal and Vitrum Prenatal Forte;
  • Multimax for pregnant and lactating women;
  • Complivit "Mama" and others.

All of these drugs are taken orally and come in the form of capsules, pills or tablets. You need to drink them once a day, with the exception of AlfaVit Mom's Health - it should be used three times a day.

Most women experience vitamin deficiencies during pregnancy. This is not surprising, because a baby growing in the womb needs nutrients, which he draws from her body. Therefore, pregnant women need to constantly replenish their vitamin reserves so that they are sufficient both for the development of the child and for the needs of the female body.

Most women experience a shortage during pregnancy. This is not surprising, because a baby growing in the womb needs nutrients, which he draws from her body. Therefore, pregnant women need to constantly replenish their vitamin reserves so that they are sufficient both for the development of the child and for the needs of the female body.

However, doctors recommend thinking about upcoming changes even before pregnancy, this also applies to replenishing your reserves with useful substances. But the rhythm of life, poor environment, constant stress, poor nutrition and many other factors do not allow them to be fully obtained. This is why synthetic drugs come to the rescue.

Modern pharmacology has a wide range of products that help enrich the female body with beneficial vitamins and microelements even before the moment of conception, as well as while expecting a baby. These include the drug Femibion ​​1.

Indications for use

The drug Femibion ​​1 is rich in vitamins and microelements that are necessary for a woman planning to replenish her family. The main indications for its use are:

  • energy deficit;
  • impaired metabolism;
  • problems with the circulatory system;
  • increased nervousness;
  • weakened immune system;
  • anemia;
  • skin problems;
  • increased amount of free radicals in the body;
  • dysfunction.

Femibion ​​1: advantages and disadvantages

This vitamin preparation is actively used not only during pregnancy planning, but also during pregnancy, as it has a number of advantages:

  1. Femibion1 does not contain allergenic substances.
  2. There is also no retinol (vitamin A), which is not recommended for use during pregnancy.
  3. Well absorbed by the body.
  4. It has a beneficial effect on the condition of women's nails and hair.

The only disadvantage of the drug is its high cost, which limits its use. However, women who want to have a healthy and strong baby are rarely stopped by this fact. But do not forget that the drug should be taken only after a complete examination and as prescribed by a doctor.

Femibion ​​1 when planning pregnancy

Before conception, it is necessary to check the balance of vitamins in the body, and preferably of both parents. It is in order to replenish the deficiency of vitamins and minerals for the expectant mother that doctors prescribe Femibion ​​1. The drug contains the main substances that are necessary for the normal development of the baby. Mommy also needs them to feel normal during pregnancy. Femibion ​​is especially useful for women who have an unbalanced diet and who were diagnosed with vitamin deficiency before a planned pregnancy.

Taking vitamins before conception allows you to avoid many complications during pregnancy. Also, timely replenishment of supplies prevents the risk of the child developing various pathologies or developmental delays.

Unlike Femibion ​​2, the drug contains in its composition, which is very important for pregnancy. In addition, the drug contains other components that also have a beneficial effect on the female body:

1. B vitamins:

B1 - normalizes carbohydrate metabolism, supplies the body with the necessary energy;

B2 - takes an active part in biochemical processes;

B12 - responsible for the production of blood cells, prevents anemia (), strengthens the nervous system, helps cells absorb necessary substances;

B6 - ensures the exchange of amino acids, which are the building materials of proteins;

B5 - prevents organ dysfunction, normalizes metabolic processes.

2. Vitamin C(ascorbic acid) - strengthens the immune system, improves iron absorption, forms and strengthens connective tissue.

3. Tocopherol(vitamin E) - protects the female body from free radicals, effectively removes toxic substances.

4. Biotin(vitamin H) - improves the condition of the skin.

5. Nicotinamide(vitamin PP) - protects the skin, gives it a natural color.

As you can see, Femibion ​​is simply irreplaceable when planning pregnancy and more. The drug allows women to improve their health and well-being and at the same time prepare for the planned joyful event.

The vitamin product can be taken by absolutely all representatives of the fair sex, but the duration of administration should be discussed with a doctor.

Instructions for use Femibion ​​1

The vitamin remedy is very useful for women who eat incorrectly. Due to an unbalanced diet, the body begins to experience a significant lack of vitamins, so Femibion ​​is prescribed to this category of patients. The drug allows you to normalize the balance of nutrients, which ensures complete absorption of folic acid by the female body. At the same time, a synthetic product cannot replace good nutrition and nutrients that enter the body along with food. Therefore, in parallel with taking Femibion, it is necessary to adjust the nutritional diet.

Take vitamin tablets once a day during meals with a small amount of water. The duration of treatment is determined by the doctor, but on average it ranges from the moment of preparation for a joyful event until the 12th week of pregnancy. It is prohibited to increase the dosage or change the dosage schedule on your own, as it is possible to develop hypervitaminosis, which is no less dangerous than vitamin deficiency.

Contraindications

The advantage of the drug is that it has virtually no contraindications. The only limitation is individual intolerance to the active components of the drug.

Otherwise, the drug helps to achieve the desired results, that is, to get pregnant, within 2-3 months from the date of treatment. But only if there are no additional difficulties for the married couple (problems with reproductive function).

Especially for- Maria Dulina

Carrying a pregnancy and giving birth to a child is the main purpose of a woman. Modern medicine does not allow these important processes to occur on their own, without monitoring the condition of the woman and the fetus, without the attention of a gynecologist. Today, there are a lot of medications and vitamin complexes designed to maintain the health of the expectant mother at the proper level, to prevent the development of a deficiency of any elements and minerals necessary for the birth of a healthy and fully developed child. One of the fairly widely used vitamin complexes can be called “Femibion”, reviews of almost every woman characterize it as a drug that has a beneficial effect on the body both during pregnancy planning and during it and the entire period of breastfeeding.

Consumers should know that the Femibion ​​trademark today produces two types of multivitamin complexes: Femibion-1 and Femibion-2. The first is designed to strengthen the body during the period when a woman is still planning to become a mother, and during the first trimester of pregnancy. The second complex is usually prescribed to pregnant women, starting from the second trimester until the end of the lactation period.

Components

The dosage form of the Femibion ​​1 complex is tablets, Femibion ​​2 is presented in the form of tablets and capsules.

Reviews about Femibion ​​1 tablets (many women today take this drug when planning a pregnancy) are very positive. Patients claim that they felt great after using them. This is due to a fairly wide range of elements included in the drug: the entire group of vitamins B, vitamins C, H, PP, E, iodine, folic acid and its optimally absorbed medicinal compound - metafolin.

The tablet form of the Femibion ​​2 complex has a similar composition. The capsules contain 2 active ingredients: vitamin E and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the volume of which is equivalent to 500 mg of high concentration fish oil.

DHA belongs to the group of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids. Its presence is mandatory to stimulate the normal functioning of the heart, blood vessels, brain, eyes and many other organs and systems of the future person. This element overcomes the placental barrier and has a beneficial effect on fetal development. Women who take Femibion-2 during pregnancy leave the following reviews: mood is normalized, body tone is increased, metabolism is accelerated and optimized.

Pharmacological effects on the human body

The fairly diverse composition of the drug "Femibion" during pregnancy (reviews from health workers confirm this fact) ensures the normal development of almost all organs and systems of the child.

Folic acid has a positive effect both on the course of pregnancy and on the development of the baby - both in utero and after birth. Once in the body, this element undergoes transformation into a biologically more active form. Metafolin (the active form of folate) is absorbed faster and easier than the parent substance, folic acid.

Element B1 is directly involved in energy and carbohydrate metabolism, B2 stimulates energy metabolism, B6 is a participant in protein metabolism in the body, B12 controls the normal functioning of the central nervous system and the hematopoietic system. Vitamin B5 plays an important role in metabolic processes.

Femibion ​​contains a fairly large amount of vitamin C. Reviews from any medical specialist position this element as responsible for supporting the body’s defenses, normalizing the process of iron absorption and the formation of connective tissue. Vitamin E will protect cells from the harmful effects of free radicals. Biotin will have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, and iodine will take an active part in the functioning of the thyroid gland. Nicotinamide, along with vitamin C, will support the body’s defenses for both the woman and the developing fetus.

Doctors' reviews recommend taking the vitamin complex "Femibion" from the planning stage of pregnancy until delivery, and then until the end of the breastfeeding period. In other words, Femibion-1 tablets are intended for women who are still planning to become pregnant, and for those who are already carrying a child during the first trimester. From the beginning of the second trimester (from the 13th week of pregnancy), you need to switch to taking Femibion-2 vitamins. Reviews from pregnant women whose bodies do not properly absorb folic acid are mostly positive.

For women carrying a child, this drug is prescribed to correct the nutrient balance (nutrient balance).

Next, consumers should know that at the stage of pregnancy planning, Femibion-1 can be taken not only by women, but also by men. The extensive composition of the vitamin complex has a beneficial effect on the reproductive system of the strong half of humanity.

Ladies who have no immediate plans to carry and give birth to a child can also take Femibion-1 as a multivitamin complex.

When should you start taking Femibion-2 during pregnancy? Reviews from consumers and medical personnel say that the product can be used from the 13th week until the birth of the baby and the end of breastfeeding. Doctors and pharmacists assure that the vitamin complex will provide both a pregnant woman and a mother with a newborn baby with all the necessary substances.

What is good about the medicine?

Vitamins for pregnant women "Femibion" are reviewed by both medical staff and women as good support for the body, which is experiencing quite serious stress.

Firstly, the vitamin complex contains iodine, and a woman expecting a child does not need to additionally take iodine-containing drugs (Iodomarin, Potassium iodine, etc.).

Secondly, both Femibion ​​complexes contain 9 elements, which are most often lacking in women bearing a child. These are vitamins C, E, H, PP, group B.

Thirdly, “Femibion-1” and “Femibion-2” contain folic acid (400 mcg), presented in two forms. The first is folic acid, the second is metafolin, in which the same folic acid acts as a compound that is absorbed by the woman’s body more easily and more fully and, therefore, is more likely to ensure the full formation of the child’s nervous system. Considering the fact that almost 50% of women have a history of inability to absorb folic acid, the presence of metafolin in the Femibion ​​multivitamins (reviews from the majority of health workers is a direct confirmation of this) provides an opportunity to obtain folate in the required volume.

Fourthly, the presence of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in the Femibion ​​2 capsules ensures the full formation of the child’s brain and visual organs. Vitamin E promotes high-quality absorption of DHA and its maximum effectiveness.

The tablets (one per day) are taken orally, without chewing, biting or crushing. Experts advise doing this during a meal or immediately after a meal, optimally in the first half of the day, before noon. Half a glass of water is enough to drink.

Following simple recommendations for the use of the vitamin complex will enable the body of a woman planning to become pregnant to fully absorb all the components of the Femibion-1 drug. Reviews from women who used it when planning pregnancy are mostly positive. However, it is worth knowing that taking tablets before meals can cause mild nausea and an unpleasant burning sensation due to irritation of the gastric mucosa. These symptoms are not an indicator of developing complications or side effects, do not require discontinuation of the medication and will go away on their own after some time.

"Femibion-2", according to the instructions, should be taken once a day, during or immediately after meals. It is highly advisable to combine tablets and capsules (in any order). If for some reason it is not possible to do this, it is permissible to space out the intake of tablets and capsules, but you need to drink them within one day.

The instructions for the second complex of the drug “Femibion” (feedback from women and health workers on this issue are unanimous) recommends taking it in the first half of the day, since the medication has a mild stimulating effect, and using it in the evening can cause problems with falling asleep.

Pregnant women should not experiment with the dosage, because exceeding it may provoke the development of negative consequences. Also, ladies in an interesting position need to know that no vitamins or dietary supplements can replace a balanced and varied diet.

There are no analogues to the Femibion ​​vitamin complex based on the active substance. According to the mechanism of action on a woman’s body and according to their belonging to the same pharmacological group, the following medications are similar: “Arthromax”, “Bioactive Minerals”, “Napravit”, “Mitomin”, “Nagipol”, “Multifort”, “Progelvit” and many other.

Contraindications and possible side effects

The use of the drug "Femibion-1" reviews during pregnancy and when planning it receives in most cases a positive direction. However, there is still one contraindication for taking this complex. Femibion ​​should not be taken by those who suffer from allergic reactions or individual intolerance to any component of the complex, be it the main component or an auxiliary one.

In the majority of cases, consumer reviews of the drug Femibion, as already mentioned, are positive. However, sometimes (rarely, but possible) some side effects may develop as a result of using the drug. Most often, women talk about nausea and allergic reactions, manifested in the form of rashes, itching, peeling and redness of the skin. Sometimes patients complain of a feeling of apathy, indifference to the world around them.

In general, expectant mothers should keep in mind that if negative manifestations occurred when using the drug Femibion-1, then with a high degree of probability the same reaction will occur with Femibion-2. Therefore, if undesirable effects develop, you should not expect a miracle; it is better to immediately abandon the Femibion ​​complex and replace it with some other, more suitable remedy.

Opinion of pregnant women about the drug

The bulk of reviews about the Femibion ​​vitamin complex are positive, due to its wide range of effects on the body of a woman and a developing baby. Let's discuss in more detail what the lovely ladies say about the Femibion-1 complex. Reviews (during pregnancy, as already mentioned, this drug is prescribed quite often) from consumers say that the drug is well tolerated and does not cause any discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract, does not provoke headaches or drowsiness. Feeling great (this is the opinion of the majority of expectant mothers) while taking Femibion ​​is a very significant factor for giving preference to this particular medication when given a choice.

Also, many women talk about the good condition of their nails while taking the drug mentioned: there is strengthening, absence of delamination and excellent growth of the nail plate. An improvement in the condition of hair and skin becomes noticeable quite quickly.

Special attention is paid to the fact that Femibion ​​vitamins (reviews from experts and instructions for use confirm this information) contain iodine and metafolin (an easily digestible form of folic acid), which is a definite plus, because there is no need to additionally take iodine-containing medications.

However, the vitamin complex also has several disadvantages. Firstly, the cost is quite high. The price of a Femibion-1 package is on average about 400 rubles. Femibion-2 costs twice as much: you will have to pay from 850 to 900 rubles for a package. Secondly, the multivitamin complex lacks such important elements as magnesium and iron, so pregnant women have to additionally take medications containing them.

Opinion of ladies planning pregnancy

The overwhelming majority of women who take Femibion ​​when planning a pregnancy leave positive reviews. They assure that the drug maintains excellent health, is well tolerated and absorbed. And it must be said that within a relatively short period of time after starting to take Femibion, most women become pregnant.

In addition, a separate group of representatives of the fair sex makes the choice in favor of this particular vitamin complex quite consciously. These are those patients in whom the MTHFR gene has been mutated, as a result of which the functioning of the enzymes that ensure the complete absorption of folic acid is disrupted. The result in such a situation is the uselessness of taking vitamin complexes containing this component. But for the assimilation of metafolin, which is part of Femibion, no mutations are a problem.

There is a small percentage of negative reviews about the drug Femibion. Reviews when planning pregnancy and when it occurs are negative due to the development of allergic reactions or individual hypersensitivity to the constituent components. Allergies manifest as itching, red spots on the skin, or scaly patches. Increased sensitivity to the components of Femibion ​​can manifest itself in the form of fatigue, apathy, loss of strength, and unmotivated laziness.

Opinion of medical specialists

Currently, unfavorable environmental conditions, stress, improper and unbalanced nutrition quite often jeopardize the ability to give birth to a healthy and full-term baby. Vitamin deficiency almost always follows a person, but the period of bearing a child is an additional risk of its manifestation. The load on the body of the expectant mother increases, because it is necessary not only to replenish the reserves and resources of her own body, but also to provide the developing fetus with all the necessary elements and substances. Gynecological specialists monitoring the health status of their patients are increasingly deciding on the need to continue pregnancy in a hospital setting. And the use of dietary supplements and mineral-vitamin complexes at the planning stage and during the period of bearing a baby strengthens the woman’s body and makes it possible for all organs and systems of the future person to fully develop.

Femibion ​​occupies not the last place among all dietary supplements and vitamin preparations. Reviews from pregnant women and gynecologists observing them regarding this medication are unanimous: Femibion-1 and Femibion-2 are worth the money that the manufacturer asked for them. The drug makes it possible to maintain the vitamin balance of the female body at the proper level throughout the entire period of pregnancy planning, the actual gestation of the baby and the lactation period.

According to experts, Femibion ​​is able to replace a whole range of drugs, vitamins and dietary supplements that are usually recommended for use by pregnant women in order to ensure the full development of the fetus and optimize the load on the mother’s body.

A complex vitamin product that meets the body's needs during pregnancy planning and its early stages. Prevents deficiency of nutrients and promotes physiologically healthy and harmonious health. Femibion ​​1 is registered as a dietary supplement, not a drug, but is very popular among patients who trust German quality and see positive results from use.

Dosage form

The product is available only in tablet form. Most patients note that this is the most convenient form of release, since the drug can always be carried with you. The package contains 30 tablets.

Description and composition

It is during this period that the mother’s body must have all the necessary substances for the full development and formation of internal organs, the nervous system and other parts of the fetus’ body.
