If you have read my previous review you will know that I wanted to find some vitamins to help boost my daughters immune systems for over the winter and I tried the Abidec vitamin syrup but my youngest daughter didn't like it at all so I decided to give these a try instead, it states on the box that it has a natural flavour and aroma. The vitamins are available from chemists and supermarkets and cost just short of £4 for a bottle of 25mls but as the dosage starts at 0.3mls you actually have quite a long course. The vitamins come in a bright orange cardboard box with a picture of an infant on the front, it states that there are 7 essential vitamins ...  Read the complete review

It was recommended by my Health Visitor that I considered giving a vitamin supplement to my son once I started weaning him onto solids. The only Children's Vitamins I had had experience of using was Abidec and so this was the reason I opted for this brand. ********Why I Chose Abidec********** As a child's body is constantly undergoing a state of growth and repair it needs a higher concentration of vitamins and minerals per kilogram of body mass.

Now there was a certain amount of information / disinformation regarding the subject of mostly / exclusively breast-fed babies and their need for (drum-roll, please) Vitamin D when I had my first sprog five years ago.

It's a good job Abidec Multivitamin Drops appear to do the job because finding multivitamins suitable for babies is extraordinarily difficult. I was initially told by my health visitor that I should consider buying multivitamin drops for my daughter when she was six months old. The rationale was my daughter was still being breast fed and therefore not necessarily getting enough iron. I found this statement a little irritating to be honest. I couldn't understand how I could in any way be penalised for continuing to breast feed in conjunction with introducing solid food rather than reaching for the formula. What happened in years gone by before vitamin drops and ...  Read the complete review

I felt that I had to write about this product as I was shocked at what I had found, My daughter has a lot of of healthe problems and needs extra vitamins in her diet. I have tried Avidec multi for a couple of days and found that she was very gripey and eventually she was sick. I could not figure out why. It was when i was chatting to a freind on the net and she asked me what vitamins I was giving my daughter that I actually fead the ingredients. What did I find the vitamins containede?
