My younger sister is 7 months pregnant. First 6 months doctor gave livogen-z. But after 6 months, the doctor has changed it and gave carbonyl iron vitamin and protein. Is it ok for better development of baby.

No problem. Doctors think twice before changing medications. So trust your doctor.

Hi lybrate-user kumar, yes iron is very much necessary during pregnancy, livogen is a good iron formula specially during pregnancy if pt is tolerating it well, then y your doctor has changed it? It is difficult to comment without having latest haemoglobin (cbc) report.
