Children's Vitamins
As a parent, ensuring your child receives the essential nutrients they need from diet alone can be challenging, especially with picky eaters or busy schedules.
Kids' vitamins are a convenient way to fill nutritional gaps and support your child's immune system, overall health and normal growth and development.
At Pharmacy Online, we offer a range of high-quality children's vitamins to help your child thrive.
Understanding kids' vitamins
What are kids' vitamins?
Kids' vitamins are supplements designed to provide essential nutrients that children might not get enough of, even from a varied diet. These vitamins and minerals are crucial for various aspects of growth and development:
Calcium: Essential for strong bones and teeth.
Vitamin K: Necessary for blood clotting and bone health.
Vitamin D: Essential for bone health and calcium absorption.
Vitamin A: Important for vision, immune function, and skin health.
Vitamin C: Supports the immune system, aids in iron absorption, and promotes healthy skin.
Vitamin E: Acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage.
B-Complex vitamins: Including B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (pyridoxine), B7 (biotin), B9 (folate), and B12 (cobalamin) which are vital for energy production, brain function, and cell metabolism.
Iron: Crucial for the production of haemoglobin and overall energy levels.
These vitamins and minerals support overall health, from boosting the immune system to ensuring proper growth and development.

FAQ
At what age should children start taking vitamins?
Children can start taking vitamins as young as two, depending on dietary needs and health visitor recommendations. Always follow the age guidelines on the product label.
What are the side effects of children's vitamins?
Most children tolerate vitamins well when taken as directed. However, over-supplementation can cause issues like stomach upset. Stick to recommended dosages and consult a healthcare provider with any concerns.
How can I ensure my child gets enough nutrients from food?
While vitamins can help fill gaps, focus on providing a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins. Supplements are meant to complement, not replace, a healthy diet.
Why does my baby need vitamin D supplements?
Babies need vitamin D supplements because they often don't get enough from breast milk or sunlight. Vitamin D is essential for healthy bone development and helps prevent rickets, which leads to weak or soft bones.
Babies fed infant formula do not need additional vitamin D supplements if they consume more than 500ml (about a pint) daily. This is because infant formula is fortified with sufficient vitamin D and other nutrients, ensuring that your baby receives the necessary vitamins for healthy growth and development.
