Based on information posted on the manufacturers' websites on 10/20/08.
Prenatal Vitality System multivitamin uses quality ingredients in the standard multivitamin components, such as the methylcobalamin form of Vitamin B-12, the D-3 form of Vitamin D, and a mix of various forms of minerals utilizing the amino acid chelate or krebs cycle form of the mineral for greater absorption.
Prenatal Vitality includes a higher dose of calcium (as calcium carbonate, citrate &malate)and magnesium (as magnesium chelate &oxide) higher doses of vitamin B complex and a number of other ingredients not included in the competitive offerings.
What it doesn't include may be just as important. Why would you prescribe car wax, aluminum, antifreeze, artificial colors, a fungicide, and pro-inflammatory omega-6 vegetable oils for a pregnant mother or her fetus?
