The CitraNatal® family of products offers three different lines of products: CitraNatal® Assure, CitraNatal® 90 DHA and CitraNatal® DHA. CitraNatal® DHA also contains 250 mg of pure, pre-formed, vegetable-based DHA.
As an option to health care providers, we have also developed the CitraNatal® 90 DHA. For patients that need extra iron during their pregnancy, this is an alternative therapy that contains 90 mg of iron and 200 mg of calcium citrate.
Our newest product offering, CitraNatal® Assure, includes slightly increased levels of iron and vitamin B6 as well as 300 mg of DHA, the recommended amount in pregnancy. This helps ensure pregnant women get the right amount of DHA from the right source.

Important Safety Information
All CitraNatal® products contain Folic acid, which has been shown to reduce the risk of neural tube defects. Some patients taking Folic acid have reported allergic reactions. Talk to your doctor before taking CitraNatal® if you have a known sensitivity to any of its ingredients.
CitraNatal® products are not for everyone. If you have certain types of anemia (pernicious anemia or other megaloblastic anemias) and you are vitamin B12 deficient, Folic acid alone is not enough to treat your condition. Doses of more than 0.1 mg Folic acid per day can hide the symptoms of these anemias, making them difficult to diagnose. Consult with your doctor to find the treatment that is right for you.
Certain CitraNatal® products contain an all-natural, plant-based form of DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid that is found in the brain and eye. You should exercise caution to ensure that your prescribed dosage does not exceed 1 gram (1000 mg) per day. Taking more than 3 grams of omega-3 fatty acids per day has been shown to have antithrombotic effects, including an increased bleeding time and reduced clotting ratio (INR). Inform your doctor and avoid taking omega-3 fatty acids if you are currently taking anticoagulants (blood thinners) or if you have an inherited or acquired tendency to bleed.
CitraNatal® products include iron. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under six. Always keep CitraNatal® products and other medications out of reach of children, and in case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or poison control center immediately.
