Value for money

This multivitamin product is intended for children from 1 month to 12 years of age. Unlike most other vitamin and mineral preparations, this is a licensed medicine, which would indicate that its use and benefits are supported by verified independent evidence.

However it contains only 7 of the 12 essential vitamins, these range from 20% RDA to 200% RDA depending on the nutrient. As such, it is likely that this product would not deliver the expected benefits associated with a full spectrum multivitamin. The product contains no minerals.

It is packaged as a bottle with an associated syringe in order for the drops to be administered directly into the mouth of the infant. This is highly appropriate for the intended age range, but compliance is likely to be poor with older children. This is an appropriate product for very young infants.
