BioGaia AB (publ) launched a probiotic food supplement for women before and during pregnancy. Prenatal Care is a probiotic food supplement that contains BioGaia's patented bacteria strain L. reuteri DSM 17938 along with folic acid, iron, and vitamin D3, for expecting mothers as well as women planning to conceive.

Folic acid can support the neural tube development of the growing foetus.
