Haliborange Multivitamin Softies Strawberry Flavour 30

What is Haliborange Multivitamin Softies Strawberry Flavour 30?

A tub of 30 soft, chewable strawberry-flavour pastilles carrying a daily blend of vitamins for children aged 3 and over. It is a food supplement rather than a medicine, meant to sit alongside a varied diet rather than replace one.

How does it help?

Children do not always eat a wide enough range of foods to take in a steady amount of every vitamin, and fussy stretches are common at this age. A daily softie tops up that intake with a measured amount of vitamins in a chewable form, so there is no tablet to swallow and no spoon of liquid to argue over. The pastille is chewed rather than swallowed whole, and the vitamins are absorbed from the gut in the ordinary way.

Key benefits

• A chewable pastille rather than a tablet or a liquid, which is often the difference between a supplement being taken and being refused.
• One softie a day makes it simple to keep to a routine and easy to see at a glance how many are left.
• Strawberry flavour, which tends to go down more easily with younger children than plain vitamin drops.
• The NHS suggests that many children up to the age of five may benefit from a vitamin supplement, so a daily multivitamin is a reasonable thing for a parent to consider.

Who should take care?

Always read the instructions before use. This is a food supplement and should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily amount stated on the pack. Keep out of the sight and reach of children, as the pastilles look and taste like sweets. Check the pack label for the full ingredient list, including allergens and any sweeteners, before giving it to a child. If your child takes any other supplement or any prescribed medicine, or has a medical condition, speak to our pharmacist or your GP first. Our pharmacy team is happy to check that this is a sensible choice for your child before you buy.
