D3 Strong 400 IU Paediatric Drops 30 ml contains cholecalciferol, also known as vitamin D3. It replaces or supplements vitamin D when your child does not have enough to meet their body's needs.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Include calcium-rich foods: Offer age-appropriate foods that provide calcium, such as milk, yoghurt, cheese, calcium-fortified foods, and suitable green vegetables. Calcium and vitamin D work together to support healthy bones and teeth.
  • Include foods that provide vitamin D: Depending on your child's age and diet, foods such as eggs, oily fish, and vitamin D-fortified milk or cereals can help support vitamin D intake.
  • Encourage safe outdoor activity: Outdoor play supports overall health. Sunlight can help the skin make vitamin D, but the amount produced varies with factors such as skin type, season, location, clothing, and sun protection. Follow local guidance on sun safety and protect your child from sunburn.
  • Follow vitamin D guidance for breastfed infants: Breast milk naturally contains relatively little vitamin D. Ask your child's doctor about appropriate vitamin D supplementation rather than relying on the mother's diet or supplements to meet the infant's needs.
