Can I continue taking my Ritalin and folic acid while trying to get pregnant?

It is generally safe to take Ritalin and folic acid together while trying to conceive. However, once you become pregnant, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional about potentially adjusting or stopping the Ritalin dosage to minimize any risks to the baby. Some studies suggest that high doses of Ritalin during pregnancy may lead to babies with lower birth weights. Ultimately, it is best to follow the guidance of a healthcare provider to ensure the health and safety of both you and your baby during pregnancy.
