Zarbee's Vitamin D Drops for Infants, 400 IU (10 mcg) Baby & Toddler Liquid Supplement, New-born & Up, Dropper Syringe Included, 0.47 fl oz

Key Nutrients in Zarbee's Vitamin D Drops

Each serving delivers precisely 400 IU (10 mcg) of vitamin D3, the most absorbable form. The formula is wonderfully simple: just two ingredients—vitamin D3 and medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), a clean carrier oil that aids absorption. No artificial flavours, sweeteners, colours, alcohol, or gluten. This minimalistic approach gives your baby exactly what’s needed, nothing more.

• Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol): The preferred form, naturally produced by skin from sunlight. Highly effective at raising vitamin D levels.
• Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCT Oil): A healthy carrier oil that ensures even dosage and easy mixing, easily digested by babies.

Why Vitamin D Is Essential for Your Baby's Health

Vitamin D helps infants absorb calcium and phosphorus, crucial for strong bones and teeth. The UK Department of Health and Social Care recommends a daily supplement of 400 IU for all breastfed babies and those consuming less than 500 ml of formula per day. Many parents don’t realise that breast milk alone doesn’t provide enough vitamin D, and sunlight isn’t a reliable source for little ones. That’s why a high-quality supplement is vital for your baby’s routine.

Safety and Dosage Guidelines for Infant Vitamin D

Always follow the recommended dose: 400 IU (0.5 ml) once daily. Shake the bottle well before each uses and uses the provided syringe to measure accurately. Do not exceed the stated dose. Store the bottle tightly closed at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Consult your paediatrician before starting any supplement, especially if your baby has health conditions or takes other medications. Keep out of reach of children to avoid accidental overdose.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the stated recommended daily dose. Keep out of the reach of young children.
