Folic Acid 150 mcg + Vitamin B12 0.9 mcg per 5 mL Syrup (200 ml)

What it is and what it is used for

A paediatric syrup providing folic acid with vitamin B12. Both are needed for healthy red blood cell formation, normal growth, brain development and nervous system function.

How to use

Dose by the child's age and weight, exactly as directed by your prescriber. Use the measuring device supplied — never a kitchen spoon.

Be aware of

Folic acid can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency, so both should be assessed together by a doctor. Do not give alongside another multivitamin without checking with your pharmacist, as the doses add up. Anaemia in a child should always be investigated by a doctor rather than treated with a supplement. Keep out of reach of children.

Consult your practitioner first
