The body uses folic acid, also called vitamin B9, to form healthy red blood cells and to build DNA in every new cell. When folate is in short supply, blood cells grow large and weak and anaemia appears. A tablet of folic acid adds back what is missing so blood formation can go on normally.

Must not be used as the only treatment for pernicious anaemia or other anaemias caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, as folic acid can hide their signs while nerve problems continue. Must not be used if you have had an allergic reaction to folic acid. Check with a doctor first if the cause of anaemia has not been investigated. Check with a doctor first if you take epilepsy medicines (such as phenytoin or phenobarbital) or methotrexate.
