As with any prescription-strength product containing folic acid, omega-3 fatty acids, iron, or vitamins D and E, please adhere carefully to the recommended dosages. Folic acid may obscure the diagnosis of pernicious anemia. Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids should be avoided in patients, including those taking anticoagulants, with inherited or acquired bleeding diatheses. Keep this and all iron containing products out of the reach of children.See full Prescribing Information for complete usage and safety data.

RDAs are established under the IOM and state the amount of a nutrient that is needed for most people (97.5%) to stay healthy. They are specific to the age and gender of the person, including pregnant and/or breast-feeding women. RDAs are supplemented with a tolerable upper intake level–the largest daily amount of a vitamin, mineral, or other nutrient consumed or taken that is unlikely to cause harm. Supplementation with DuetDHA Complete may require additional dietary intake of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E to meet the RDAs for pregnancy.
