Contraindications: Megaloblastic anaemia due to vitamin B12 deficiency should not be treated with folic acid as the haematological features of vitamin B12 deficiency may be corrected with folic acid but the neurological effects will not be alleviated and may become irreversible. Precautions: Vitamin B12 deficiency needs to be excluded before folic acid is prescribed. Large doses of folic acid may counteract the anti-epileptic effect of diphenylhydantoin.
