[Folate- and iron-deficiency in pregnancy (author's transl)].

In an open study the influence of a pure iron-therapy (Aktiferrin) and a combined iron-folic-therapy (Aktiferrin F) on the blood and the folate levels in the serum of 60 anaemic pregnant women was compared. The prophylactic administration and the therapy of iron and folate acid in pregnancy is demanded because of the results of this examination.
