Special Precautions

Folic acid should never be given alone or in conjunction with inadequate amounts of vitamin B₁₂ for the treatment of undiagnosed megaloblastic anemia, since folic acid may produce a hematopoietic response in patients with a megaloblastic anemia due to vitamin B₁₂ deficiency without preventing aggravation of neurological symptoms. This masking of the true deficiency state can lead to serious neurological damage, such as subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord.
