Abidec Multivitamin Drops - 25ml
What are Abidec Multivitamin Drops?
Abidec Multivitamin Drops are a vitamin supplement that contains seven different vitamins to help your child gain all the vitamins they need in their diet to support their development. The drops are easy to administer and have been specially formulated to help to maintain healthy growth. This pack contains a bottle of Abidec Multivitamin Drops and an easy to use syringe. Abidec should be taken daily to provide a sufficient amount of vitamins to prevent vitamin deficiencies and promote healthy growth.
Why are vitamins important for healthy development?
Vitamins and minerals are essential for healthy development and growth, especially for babies who are born prematurely. The required levels of vitamins are usually obtained through eating a healthy diet. Similarly breast milk and formula powders contain some vitamins but not enough to support the development of premature babies. It is so important to ensure that your child receives all the vitamins they require in order to support healthy growth and development.
What are multivitamins?
Traditional supplements tend to contain just one vitamin or mineral, whereas multivitamins contain a blended formula of different vitamins and minerals, which are ideal for those who miss out on many vitamins from their diet. In some circumstances, it isn’t possible for children and babies to receive all of the vitamins they need from their diet alone, so multivitamins can help to include any vitamins and minerals that are missing in the diet.

Abidec Drops contain seven key vitamins that can help to support your child’s growth and development. The vitamins included in this product include:
-
