Flintstones Childrens Complete Chewable Vitamins

Children have different nutritional needs than adults. High levels of iron can be harmful, and growing kids need more calcium. Then there is the taste factor, important in getting your kids to actually chew and swallow the pill. Most (but not all) reviews from parents indicate their children like the flavor of Flintstones Children's Complete Chewable Vitamins, and the Bayer product fares well in a laboratory test by an unbiased source, too. If your child does like the taste, be careful to keep them out of reach to avoid an overdose. Flintstones vitamins come in several formulas, and you should choose one based on your child's age and eating habits. The Flintstones website has a chart to determine which formula is best for your child. Some reviews indicate that adults who have trouble swallowing pills are taking Flintstones, but check with your physician to determine whether the vitamin content is appropriate for your needs. We also found good reviews for Flintstones Gummies (*Est. $22 for 200 gummies).

We find the best information at ConsumerLab.com, which does extensive laboratory testing of multivitamins, but you'll need to subscribe to read it. Flintstones is included in their testing. The free section of Consumer Reports' coverage of multivitamins is helpful in a general way, but children's multivitamins are not covered. Consumer reviews are unscientific, but they can be helpful for input on whether children like the taste.
