No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Iron and folic acid (IFA) supplements are currently provided to Cambodian women during pregnancy. However, recent research has showed benefit of a multiple micronutrient supplement (MMS) over just IFA alone on several outcomes of perinatal and infant health. The Ministry of Health in Cambodia has proposed a transition from IFA to MMS but would like to collect some formative research on this first to assess acceptability and adherence to MMS (over IFA) and help guide key messaging, packaging, and practices to guide the transition in Cambodia.
