I can't seem to find the list of ingredients with amounts - specifically calcium and fatty acids - in calnate. Where can I find the list for this drug? Just wondering if I should continue to take other supplements...


Curious if you found your answer



I have just been given CalNate as a prenatal vitiman and would also like to know its contents. Did you happen to have your posting answered?
Thanks!
