PreferaOB+DHA™
Dual prenatal with 15 key vitamins & minerals and DHA supplement...
Thank you for considering PreferaOB+DHA™ as your prenatal vitamin. Although eating healthy is the ideal way to get all of your nutrients during your pregnancy, this can be difficult to do especially if you’re suffering from morning sickness. Prenatal vitamins can help ensure that both mom and baby are getting the best vitamins and minerals they need.
What makes PreferaOB+DHA™ special is that our prenatal vitamin contains 15 key vitamins and minerals plus DHA available in two small forms. That’s why PreferaOB+DHA™ is a preferred choice for flexibility, because you can take these two pills separately at any time of the day. If you’re interested in a prenatal vitamin that contains DHA in an all-in-one form, please read more about PreferaOB ONE™. Or, if you’re interested in a prenatal vitamin without DHA, please read more about PreferaOB®.
