: Even tho it says for 2 and older on the package? I thought about just giving 1/2 a tablet. The pharmacist said a whole should be fine. Also said they shouldnt have iron this young, something about the body retaining it?


Tina,

Iron is good for them so they don't become anemic which is especially common in children who don't eat well. What I do is give my children vitamins 5 days a week and let their bodies rest on the weekend. Any excess will come out in their stool in 2 days.

Hope this helps.
