Active Iron Pregnancy Plus 90 Capsules Pregnancy Iron, Active Folate & DHA Formula for Maternal Nutrition Before, During and After Pregnancy Active Iron Pregnancy Plus is a three-p art pregnancy food supplement containing 30 Active Iron capsules, 30 multivitamin tablets with Active Folic and 30 omega-3 DHA capsules. One of each is taken daily, providing approximately 30 days' supply rather than 90 days. This is the previous Pregnancy Plus formulation, which Active Iron has now discontinued and replaced with its newer Active Iron Pregnancy product. Overview Active Iron Pregnancy Plus was developed as a comprehensive pregnancy supplement combining three separate nutritional components: Active Iron Multivitamin with Active Folic Omega-3 DHA Each 90-count pack contains 30 of each component. The recommended daily serving is therefore three individual capsules/tablets, giving approximately 30 days' supply. Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, normal oxygen transport and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. The multivitamin contains folate as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate together with vitamins and minerals including vitamin D, B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc and iodine. The DHA component provides omega-3 DHA. Maternal DHA intake contributes to the normal brain and eye development of the foetus. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of 250mg EPA and DHA. Important stock information: Active Iron officially discontinued Pregnancy Plus in 2025 and replaced it with the newer Active Iron Pregnancy formulation, which no longer contains the separate omega-3 DHA component.

Why Choose This Product The distinguishing feature of Active Iron Pregnancy Plus was its three-part approach. Instead of providing only a multivitamin, the pack combines a dedicated Active Iron capsule, a pregnancy multivitamin containing Active Folic and a separate omega-3 DHA capsule. This means the 90-count pack consists of: 30 Active Iron capsules + 30 multivitamin tablets + 30 DHA capsules = approximately 30 complete daily servings. The DHA component is particularly important when distinguishing Pregnancy Plus from the current Active Iron Pregnancy formulation. Active Iron discontinued Pregnancy Plus and removed the separate omega-3 component when introducing its newer Pregnancy product. Helpful Product Information Active Iron Pregnancy Plus is not a 90-day supply. The pack contains three different products taken together each day, so the 90 individual capsules/tablets provide approximately 30 complete daily servings. It is also important to distinguish this older Pregnancy Plus formulation from the current Active Iron Pregnancy product. Active Iron confirmed in September 2025 that Pregnancy Plus was discontinued. Its replacement contains 25mg Active Iron plus a new time-release multivitamin but does not contain the separate DHA capsule. Customers who already have Pregnancy Plus should follow the instructions on their specific pack and check the expiry date before use. Trust & Pharmacist Advice Pregnancy is an important time to avoid both nutritional deficiencies and unnecessary duplication of supplements. Iron contributes to normal red blood cell and haemoglobin formation and normal oxygen transport. Individual iron requirements during pregnancy vary, however. If blood tests have identified iron deficiency or iron-deficiency anaemia, follow the treatment recommended by your GP, pharmacist, midwife or maternity team rather than relying solely on a general pregnancy supplement. Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus. The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid intake of 400µg daily for at least one month before and up to three months after conception. Some women require a prescribed 5mg dose of folic acid because of individual risk factors. A standard pregnancy supplement should not replace prescribed high-dose folic acid. The Pregnancy Plus formulation also contains DHA. Maternal DHA intake contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus when the required daily intake conditions are met. Avoid combining Pregnancy Plus with another comprehensive prenatal multivitamin without checking the total amounts of iron, folate, vitamin D, iodine and other nutrients.

What is Active Iron Pregnancy Plus 90 Capsules?Active Iron Pregnancy Plus is the previous three-part Active Iron pregnancy supplement. The 90-count pack contains 30 Active Iron capsules, 30 multivitamin with Active Folic tablets and 30 omega-3 DHA capsules. One of each is taken daily. 2. Does Active Iron Pregnancy Plus contain 90 days' supply?No. This is an important correction to older product descriptions. The pack contains 90 individual pieces but three are taken each day: one iron capsule, one multivitamin tablet and one DHA capsule. It therefore provides approximately 30 days' supply. 3. Has Active Iron Pregnancy Plus been discontinued?Yes. Active Iron officially confirmed that Pregnancy Plus was discontinued and replaced with a new Active Iron Pregnancy formulation. The manufacturer announced this change in September 2025. 4. What replaced Active Iron Pregnancy Plus?The replacement is called Active Iron Pregnancy. It contains a 25mg Active Iron capsule plus a new time-release pregnancy multivitamin. The separate omega-3 component used in Pregnancy Plus has been removed from the new formulation. 5. What is the difference between Active Iron Pregnancy Plus and Active Iron Pregnancy?Pregnancy Plus contains three daily components: Active Iron, a pregnancy multivitamin and an omega-3 DHA capsule. The current Active Iron Pregnancy contains two components: a 25mg Active Iron capsule and a technologically advanced time-release multivitamin. It does not include the separate omega-3 DHA capsule. 6. Why is iron included in Active Iron Pregnancy Plus?Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, normal oxygen transport, normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Individual iron requirements vary during pregnancy, particularly where iron deficiency has been diagnosed. 7. Does Active Iron Pregnancy Plus contain folate?Yes. The multivitamin component contains folate as 5-methyltetrahydrofolic glucosamine salt. Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy and normal blood formation. 8. Why does Active Iron Pregnancy Plus contain DHA?DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid. Maternal DHA intake contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of 250mg EPA and DHA. 9. Can Active Iron Pregnancy Plus replace prescribed 5mg folic acid?No. If you have been prescribed 5mg folic acid because of individual risk factors, continue taking the prescribed dose as directed. A standard pregnancy food supplement should not be considered a substitute for prescribed high-dose folic acid. 10. Can I combine Pregnancy Plus with another pregnancy multivitamin?Avoid routinely taking two comprehensive pregnancy multivitamins together. Pregnancy Plus already contains iron, folate and multiple vitamins and minerals. It also contains DHA. Combining products may unnecessarily duplicate nutrients, so ask your pharmacist to review your supplements if you are unsure. 11. Can I still use Active Iron Pregnancy Plus if I already have a pack?The manufacturer has discontinued the product, but discontinuation does not itself mean that an existing pack cannot be used. Check that your pack is unopened or appropriately stored, remains within its expiry date and matches the original manufacturer's instructions. If you are unsure, ask your pharmacist before use. 12. Why buy pregnancy supplements from Lir Pharmacy?Lir Pharmacy provides access to pharmacist advice alongside convenient delivery throughout Ireland. Our pharmacy team can help compare pregnancy supplements, check for unnecessary duplication and explain the differences between the discontinued Active Iron Pregnancy Plus and the manufacturer's current Active Iron Pregnancy formulation.
