BioGaia Protectis Kids with Vitamin D, orange flavour, 30 chewable tablets

$41.39

A daily probiotic is easier to keep up when a child will actually take it. BioGaia Protectis Kids with Vitamin D is an orange chewable tablet for children aged 3 and over. Each tablet contains the Protectis strain of Limosilactobacillus reuteri (DSM 17938) and 10 mcg of vitamin D. It's intended to support gut balance, immune function and healthy bone development. The tablet is free from gluten, milk protein and lactose. Our gut health for children page covers how this fits with everything else.

FAQ
What age is the orange chewable for?

The label says it's suitable from 3 years of age, one tablet daily. Babies and children under 3 have a separate drop format in the BioGaia range. Check the age on the pack and ask your health professional if you're unsure which format suits your child.

The page states the tablet is free from gluten, milk protein and lactose. It does contain isomalt and xylitol as sweeteners. Always check the ingredient list on the pack, particularly if your child has an allergy or sensitivity. It's also described as non-GMO.

Can my child take more than one tablet a day?

No. The label directions are one tablet daily. Taking more than the recommended dose may have a laxative effect because of the sweeteners. Follow the label and speak with your health professional if you have questions about the right amount for your child.

How long does a bottle last once opened?

Use the tablets within 3 months of opening. Keep the container closed when not in use and store it below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Thirty tablets cover 30 days at the label dose of one tablet daily. Keep out of reach of children.
