About Vitabiotics
Vitabiotics was founded in London in 1971 by Kartar Lalvani and is the UK’s best-known vitamin company. Its brands, including Pregnacare, Wellwoman, Wellman, Perfectil and Osteocare, are sold in pharmacies worldwide.
Halal status — read carefully
Vitabiotics is not halal-certified as a whole brand. It sells a dedicated halal vitamins range on its website, and some products (reported to include Perfectil and the gelatin used in some Pregnacare capsules) carry halal certification, while others, such as Pregnacare Original, are not halal. Always check the pack or the Vitabiotics halal collection for the specific product you want.
Popular products
- Pregnacare – pregnancy and conception vitamins
- Wellwoman – multivitamins for women
- Wellman – multivitamins for men
- Perfectil – skin, hair and nails
Why it matters
“Is Pregnacare halal?” is one of the most common questions from Muslim mums-to-be. Look for vegetarian or halal-certified capsules, and compare with halal-certified vitamin brands in our directory.
How to check if a supplement is halal
Many vitamins contain hidden animal ingredients. For example, capsules and gummies often use gelatin, and some vitamin D3 comes from lanolin. So it is worth checking every product, not just the brand.
- Look for a recognised halal certification logo on the pack.
- Check the gelatin source. Plant-based, fish or halal bovine gelatin are the usual halal options.
- Watch for alcohol in liquid vitamins and flavourings.
- Ask the brand for its current halal certificate if you are unsure.
Why Vitabiotics is listed here
Muslim families often struggle to find vitamins they can trust. This brand is one of the brands people search for most. In addition, we note the halal status we could confirm, so you can make an informed choice.
However, halal status can change when a brand updates a recipe. Therefore, always check the label on the product you buy. Also, speak to your GP or pharmacist before you start a new supplement, especially during pregnancy.
