About, ingredients & important information
A child-friendly daily multivitamin routine.
IPS Kiddie Vite is a chewable complementary medicine formulated for children — a source of vitamins and antioxidants for the maintenance of good health. Each chewable tablet carries a broad spread of actives: vitamin C, L-lysine, iron, zinc, and the full range of B vitamins, plus vitamins A, D3 and E, sized for children from 1 year.
Why these ingredients
- Vitamin C helps in the development and maintenance of bones, cartilage, teeth and gums, and supports the immune system. Diets low in fresh fruit and vegetables can leave children short of it.
- Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps counter the oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
- Vitamin A helps maintain eyesight, skin and mucous membranes, supports immune function, and helps the body metabolise iron normally.
- L-lysine, an essential amino acid, supports muscle protein synthesis for normal growth and development.
- Zinc plays a role in immune function and helps maintain healthy skin, hair and nails.
- Iron helps form red blood cells and supports their proper function.
- A combination of B vitamins supports energy metabolism and tissue formation, and normal growth and development — especially relevant for growing children.
This might be for you if…
- You want broad daily vitamin coverage for your child in one chewable tablet.
- You’re comparing formulas by what’s actually in them, not just “complete” on the label.
- You’re comfortable checking ingredients like sorbitol and sucralose against your child’s needs.
