Call your doctors but folic acid and iron are completely different things you are thinking of ferrous sulfate which is iron

@icalibear2 I thought folic acid is the same as iron tablets sept it’s higher

Folic acid is one of the B vitamins, it gets converted to vitamin B9 (folate) in the body

Oh right so why have I been put on a vit d tablets and folic acid then iv got a so sinusitis infection at mo that’s why iv now been given antibiotics

I'm not a doctor so you should really ask your doctor. But from a quick Google Scholar search it looks like there is a link between some forms of sinusitis and vitamins D deficiency.
But these types of questions are best directed at your doctor, they know your medical history and they know their own reasons for prescribing something
