How much should I give?
The manufacturer's recommended serving for children aged 6 months to 4 years is 5ml once daily.
Can I put it in milk?

Can I give it directly from a teaspoon?

Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Vitamin and mineral supplementation in babies deserves particular care because requirements differ according to age, feeding and other supplements being given.
For customers in Ireland, there is an important distinction between the manufacturer's UK-oriented information and current HSE guidance.
The HSE currently advises that babies from birth to 12 months who are breastfed or receive less than 300ml of infant formula daily should receive 5 micrograms of vitamin D daily. The HSE specifically recommends a vitamin-D-only supplement for these babies and advises discussing other vitamins with a healthcare professional.
For children aged 1 to 4 years in Ireland, the HSE currently recommends 5 micrograms of vitamin D daily during winter, from Halloween to St Patrick's Day, and states that liquid vitamin-D-only drops are usually best.
Therefore, do not automatically combine Wellbaby Infant Liquid with additional vitamin D or another multivitamin without checking the child's total intake.
Seek advice from your pharmacist, GP or public health nurse if:
- Your baby is under 12 months
- Your child is already receiving vitamin D
- Your baby is breastfed
- Your baby receives infant formula
- Your child was born prematurely
- Your child has a medical condition
- Your child is under medical supervision
- Your child takes medicines
- Your child has haemochromatosis or epilepsy
- Your child has food allergies
- You are unsure which vitamin supplement is appropriate
Premature babies may have different supplementation requirements and should follow the advice of their healthcare team.
Not Suitable For
- Infants under 6 months unless specifically advised by an appropriate healthcare professional
- Children allergic or sensitive to any ingredient
- Use alongside another Wellbaby multivitamin without professional advice
- Use alongside other vitamin/mineral supplements without first checking for duplication
How to Use
Infants and children aged 6 months to 4 years:
Give 5ml (1 teaspoonful) once daily.
- Measure 5ml.
- Add to the child's usual milk or water.
- Stir well.
- Do not administer directly from the teaspoon.
- Do not exceed the recommended intake.
- If desired, it may be given immediately before feeding so residual liquid is washed from the teeth and gums.
- Wipe any spillage from the skin.
- Avoid contact with clothing and fabrics as the product may stain.

FAQs
1. What is Vitabiotics Wellbaby Infant Liquid?
Vitabiotics Wellbaby Infant Liquid is a food supplement formulated specifically for infants and young children aged 6 months to 4 years. It provides 14 vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C and D, iron and zinc, alongside Swiss Alpine malt extract. Its liquid format allows the daily serving to be mixed into the child's usual milk or water.
2. What age is Wellbaby Infant Liquid suitable for?
The manufacturer recommends Wellbaby Infant Liquid for infants and children from 6 months up to 4 years. It should not routinely be given to babies younger than 6 months. For babies, particularly those under 12 months, supplementation should also take account of current Irish HSE guidance and the child's milk feeding.
3. Does Wellbaby Infant Liquid contain vitamin D?
Yes. The formula contains vitamin D. Vitamin D is needed for normal growth and development of bone in children and contributes to normal immune system function in children. Parents in Ireland should check with their pharmacist before adding a separate vitamin D supplement because the HSE has specific age- and feeding-dependent recommendations.
4. Does Wellbaby Infant Liquid contain iron?
Yes. Wellbaby Infant Liquid contains iron. Iron contributes to normal cognitive development of children. Iron-containing supplements should always be stored safely out of children's sight and reach and the recommended serving should not be exceeded.
5. How much Wellbaby Infant Liquid should I give my child?
For infants and children aged 6 months to 4 years, Vitabiotics recommends one 5ml teaspoonful once daily. Measure the dose and mix it into the child's usual milk or water, stirring well. Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended daily amount.
6. Can Wellbaby Infant Liquid be mixed with milk or water?
Yes. The manufacturer's current instructions are to add 5ml to your baby's usual milk or water and stir thoroughly. This can make administration easier for babies and toddlers who cannot take tablets or capsules.
7. Can I give Wellbaby Infant Liquid directly from the spoon?
The manufacturer's current directions say not to administer it directly from the teaspoon. Instead, measure 5ml and mix it into the child's usual milk or water. Vitabiotics also notes that it may be given immediately before feeding so that any residual liquid is washed from the teeth and gums.
8. Can Wellbaby Infant Liquid be used during weaning?
Yes. It is suitable from 6 months, which corresponds with the age at which many babies begin introducing complementary foods. However, supplements should complement rather than replace an appropriately varied weaning diet. The HSE provides separate guidance on nutrients required during weaning.
9. Should I give additional vitamin D with Wellbaby Infant Liquid?
Do not automatically combine supplements. In Ireland, the HSE recommends 5 micrograms of vitamin D daily from birth to 12 months for babies who are breastfed or receive less than 300ml of infant formula daily and recommends a vitamin-D-only product. Because Wellbaby is a multivitamin containing vitamin D, discuss the appropriate supplementation plan with your pharmacist, GP or public health nurse.
10. Does Wellbaby Infant Liquid replace other multivitamins?
Vitabiotics describes Wellbaby Infant Liquid as a comprehensive formula and states that it replaces other Wellbaby supplements and multivitamins, so another multivitamin should not routinely be added. For children receiving prescribed supplements or vitamin D under Irish guidance, check with a pharmacist or healthcare professional before making changes.
11. Is Wellbaby Infant Liquid suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. According to the manufacturer, Wellbaby Infant Liquid is suitable for vegetarians. It is also formulated without artificial sweeteners, artificial colours or artificial flavours and contains no alcohol, lactose or yeast.
12. Can Wellbaby Infant Liquid be used long term?
It may be used within its indicated 6-month-to-4-year age range when appropriate and taken according to the manufacturer's instructions. However, children's nutritional requirements change with age, diet, milk intake and health status. Parents should periodically review supplementation, particularly where the child takes other vitamins or minerals.
