Your questions, answered
How much do I give my child?
The label serving is 1 teaspoon (5ml) a day for babies aged 6-12 months, 2 teaspoons (10ml) for ages 1-3 and 1 tablespoon (15ml) for children aged 4 and over. Shake the bottle, then give it from the spoon or stirred into your child's favourite drink.
What's in a tablespoon?
One 15ml tablespoon gives 252mg calcium (as calcium citrate), 115mg magnesium (as magnesium citrate), 100 IU (2.5mcg) vitamin D3 and 2mg zinc, with 15 calories and 2g sugars. A teaspoon gives a third of that.
What do the calcium and vitamin D do?
Calcium and vitamin D are needed for normal growth and development of bone in children. At the tablespoon serving, magnesium also contributes to normal muscle function and zinc to normal immune function.
Is it dairy-free?
Yes. ChildLife Liquid Calcium with Magnesium contains no milk, eggs, wheat, yeast or corn, and the bottle carries NSF Certified Gluten-Free. It is sweetened with fructose and flavoured with natural orange, with no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.
How long does the bottle last?
The 473ml (16 fl oz) bottle holds 32 tablespoon servings, so about a month for a child over 4, or 95 servings, around three months, at the 1-teaspoon baby dose.
Does it need to go in the fridge?
The label says to keep it in a cool, dry place and shake it well before each use; it does not ask for refrigeration. Keep it out of children's reach, and don't use it if the outer safety seal is broken.
Can I give it with a children's multivitamin?
Add up the vitamin D, calcium and zinc in both labels first. ChildLife Vitamin D3 drops and the ChildLife Multi Vitamin & Mineral, which we also stock, both supply vitamin D, so ask your pharmacist if you're unsure about the total for your child's age.
Individual results may vary.
