Thank you in advance for your response.
In light of opinions who draw a distinction between a 'choleh' and a 'bari' regarding the permissibility of taking non-chewable pills containing hametz or safeq hametz on pesah, what category would a pregnant woman who takes prenatal vitamins fall under? Specifically, the vitamins contain 'modified food starch', the source of which I cannot ascertain, and I would like to know if my wife can continue taking them over pesah.

In most cases, refraining from taking prenatal vitamins for 7 days doesn't cause any harm.
So please consult your physician about the above possibility.
In rare cases, where the medical situation is such that taking these non-chewable pills is mandatory- they are allowed.
