Assessing the adherence and acceptability to iron and folic acid compared with multiple micronutrient supplements during pregnancy: a cluster-randomized noninferiority trial in Cambodia
Both IFA and MMS were highly acceptable, yet adherence to MMS was superior to IFA. These findings support the transition from IFA to MMS in Cambodia. This trial was registered at Clinicaltrials.gov as NCT05867836.
