Caregiver, above poster is right, talk to your doctor. The main difference between metabolized folate and folic acid is that folic acid has a lot of waste and metabolized folate is pure, natural and active. Docotrs noticed some mood improvement with folic acid but much more pronounced with metabolized folate and helps patients with AD and the fogginess/frustration in the brain. Metabolized folate also crosses into the brain through a tight barrier and works in the brain where folic acid is synthetic and not recognized by the body/cell until reduced several times. There are side effects from folic acid and studies showing less efficacy and possible increase risk using folic acid and b6 in higher amounts. Don't fool with trying to get a substitute or combining otc and foltx to make your own. If CEREFOLIN works for your mom, Pamlab will work with your Doctor to get the discount card.
