Reason for Purchase: Our paediatrician recommended iron supplementation to help prevent iron deficiency.
Thoughts:
1. Effectiveness: From a health standpoint, it seems to do what it is supposed to do, and we have continued using it as advised by our paediatrician.
2. Taste Tolerance: The lemon flavor is just okay. My child does take it now, but there was some gagging early on. That said, it is still more tolerable than other iron supplements we tried that tasted like intense cough syrup.
3. Ease of Dosing: The included dropper allows for accurate measurement and is convenient to store inside the bottle. We eventually switched to disposable 1 mL syringes, which made daily dosing much easier and less messy.
4. Comparison to Alternatives: I appreciate that this product does not contain alcohol, which some other iron supplements surprisingly do. Overall, it is a better option than several “yummy” versions that turned out to be worse.
5. Major Downside Staining: This stains absolutely everything it touches — clothes, bibs, skin, and surfaces. Once it stains, it is nearly impossible to remove, even with stain removers like Tide To Go.
6. Long-Term Use Reality: We have been using it consistently without major issues, but the staining means you have to be extremely careful every single time it is given.
7. Overall Impression: It works and my child takes it, which is important, but the staining alone makes it difficult to fully recommend without reservations.
