Helpful Product Information
Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid provides 10µg of vitamin D3 per 5ml serving. Children aged 11–12 years take 10ml daily, providing twice the quantities shown in the 5ml nutritional table.
The formula does not contain a significant amount of calcium. Vitabiotics explains that calcium has intentionally not been included because a meaningful quantity cannot easily be incorporated into this multivitamin liquid.
Children should continue to eat a varied diet containing appropriate sources of calcium, protein, fruit, vegetables, whole grains and other nutritious foods.
Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid is a food supplement rather than a medicine. Its role is to supplement the child's normal diet, not to treat illness or correct a diagnosed nutritional deficiency without appropriate professional advice.
Because the formula already contains vitamins A and D, iron, zinc, iodine and several B vitamins, check other supplements your child is taking to avoid unnecessary duplication.
The product contains iron. Accidental excessive iron intake can be particularly harmful to young children, so keep the bottle securely out of their sight and reach.
If your child has a thyroid condition, haemochromatosis, epilepsy, food allergies, is under medical supervision or takes regular medicines, discuss supplementation with a doctor or pharmacist first.
Not Suitable For
- Children under 4 years
- Anyone allergic or sensitive to any ingredient
- Children who require a gluten-free product, as the malt extract is derived from barley
- Children with haemochromatosis unless advised by a healthcare professional
- Children with a thyroid condition without appropriate professional advice
Seek advice before use if your child has epilepsy, is under medical supervision or has known food allergies. The manufacturer also states that the product is made at a site that may handle nuts.

FAQs
1. What is Vitabiotics Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid used for?
Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid is a daily food supplement designed for children aged 4–12 years. It provides 15 vitamins and minerals alongside malt extract. Its nutrients include vitamin D, which is needed for normal growth and development of bones in children, iron for normal cognitive development and iodine for normal growth. It should complement rather than replace a varied and balanced diet.
2. What age is Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid suitable for?
Vitabiotics recommends Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid for children aged 4 to 12 years. Children aged 4–10 years take 5ml daily, while children aged 11–12 years take 10ml daily. It should not be given to children under 4 years. For younger children, choose an age-appropriate product and follow its specific directions.
3. How much Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid should my child take?
Children aged 4–10 years should take one teaspoonful, approximately 5ml, daily. Children aged 11–12 years should take two teaspoonfuls, approximately 10ml, daily. Shake the bottle well before use and do not exceed the recommended intake. Because the dose changes with age, always check the current packaging before giving the supplement.
4. How long does a 150ml bottle of Wellkid last?
At the 5ml daily dose for children aged 4–10 years, a 150ml bottle provides approximately 30 days' supply. At the 10ml daily dose for children aged 11–12 years, it provides approximately 15 days' supply. Once opened, Vitabiotics advises storing the bottle in the refrigerator and using it within six weeks.
5. Does Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid contain vitamin D?
Yes. Each 5ml provides 10µg, or 400 IU, of vitamin D3. Vitamin D is needed for the normal growth and development of bones in children and contributes to normal immune system function. Children aged 11–12 taking the recommended 10ml serving receive twice the quantities shown in the manufacturer's 5ml nutritional table.
6. Does Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid contain iron?
Yes. Each 5ml provides 5mg of iron. Iron contributes to normal cognitive development in children. Because excessive iron intake can be harmful to young children, keep the bottle securely out of their sight and reach and check other supplements to avoid unnecessary duplication of iron.
7. Is Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. Vitabiotics states that Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid is suitable for vegetarians. The formula is also free from dairy products, lactose, yeast and alcohol preservative and contains no artificial sweeteners, colours or flavours. It does, however, contain malt extract derived from barley and therefore is not suitable for someone who needs to avoid gluten.
8. Is Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid gluten-free?
No. The current ingredient list contains malt extract derived from barley, which is a cereal containing gluten. It should therefore not be described as gluten-free. Parents or carers of a child with coeliac disease, a diagnosed gluten-related disorder or relevant food allergy should choose an appropriate alternative and seek professional advice if unsure.
9. Does Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid contain calcium?
It does not provide a meaningful amount of calcium. Vitabiotics explains that calcium was not included because it is difficult to provide an appropriate quantity within this multivitamin formula. Children should obtain calcium from a balanced diet or, where supplementation is appropriate, an age-suitable calcium supplement may be considered.
10. Can Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid be taken with another multivitamin?
Usually there is no need to combine it with another comprehensive children's multivitamin because Wellkid already contains vitamins A, C, D, several B vitamins, iron, zinc, copper and iodine. Combining supplements can unnecessarily increase intakes of individual nutrients. Ask your pharmacist if your child already uses another vitamin or mineral supplement.
11. Does Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid need to be refrigerated?
After opening, yes. Vitabiotics instructs that the opened bottle should be stored in the refrigerator, kept out of children's reach and used within six weeks. Before opening, store below 25°C in a dry place. Shake the bottle well before measuring each dose and keep the child-resistant cap tightly closed.
12. Does Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid contain artificial sweeteners or colours?
No. Vitabiotics states that the current Wellkid Multi-Vitamin Liquid formulation contains no artificial sweeteners, colours or flavours. It does contain raw cane sugar and glucose liquid, so it should not be described as sugar-free. The product has a natural orange flavour.
