Forgot to ask my ped the other day - chewable vitamins.

Tommy hates the dropper vitamins...he will be 2 in August. My DH said maybe we should give him Flintstones chewables. Anyone know at what age they can start taking them? Or is there a better chewable brand?

Thanks!

My dr. gave DS prescription chewables. He said the Flinstone ones didn't have enough of something (flouride I think).

I give JJ the Flinestone vitamins from time to time. I told my Ped & he said the ones they prescribe are better but if DS will not take them, the Flinestone ones will work

If you are going to use Flintstones, Target is the only place where I have found TODDLER Flintstone Vitamins good for a 2 year old. regular Flintstones are for older kids. Look for these in the YELLOW BOX

I had been giving DS gummy vitamins and when I mentioned it to the ped she pitched a fit. Said I needed to give him the prescription vitamins since the ones in the store dont have flouride in them.
