Is Folic Acid (the vitamin) and Gas the same thing?


OK I'M ASKING THIS QUESTION NOT BECAUSE I THINK IT IS A CO-WORKER OF MINE SWEARS THAT FOLIC ACID AND GAS ARE THE SAME THING? IS IT?

I am a pharmacist and I have never heard of folic acid being called "gas"...

I also looked up "gas" on urbandictionary.com and it nothing turns up anything like it--the only drug-related definitions they listed was speed and cocaine and apparently they aren't even heavily accepted.
