Multi-Vit Inf/tod W/iron Drops 50ml: Essential or Overkill for Toddlers?

I've recently picked up Multi-Vit Inf/tod W/iron Drops for my 18-month-old. I'm breastfeeding, and the pediatrician suggested it to ensure she's getting enough nutrients. The drops seem easy to use, but I’m curious if other parents are finding them helpful or if they think it’s overkill. Also, what are other parents' thoughts on the side effects? Has anyone experienced any major issues? Would love to hear your experiences and any tips you have for administering the drops!

We ditched these drops after a week because my kid threw up every time I gave them. I stuck with the iron tablets and fortunately, it hasnt been an issue for me.

I've been using these drops for my toddler and have noticed a big difference in her energy levels. No side effects so far, but I always keep an eye out for any changes. I’d definitely recommend talking to your pediatrician about it.

These drops are a lifesaver! My toddler was super fussy about food and I was worried about iron intake since the kid goes through picky eating phases. Her pediatrician advised these and she's been getting her nutrients no problem.

What dose are you giving? My pediatrician recommended one dropperful a day, any less and my daughter won't get enough iron. Also, I have the iron tablets but the drops are easier to give. How about you all?

I've had no issues with the drops, but my friend's kid got a rash after using them. Just a heads-up to keep an eye out for any allergic reactions. It's rare, but better safe than sorry.

I’ve been giving these to my 2 year old for a few weeks and honestly, I haven’t seen any changes, is it normal? Maybe I'm not giving it enough time. Any tips for getting the dosage right?

My toddler loves the taste of these drops! I mix a dropper full in a bit of juice and he drinks it right up. No side effects so far, and his pediatrician is happy with his iron levels.
