Are there any OTC vitamins that I can give my 6 month old?
Thanks.

Talk to your Doc about giving your baby vitamins first. Depending on your water supply (if you bottle feed) you may need some vitamins that contain fluoride. My Doc told me I could start giving my baby vitamins at about 8 months. My son is getting enough fluoride in his formula water so the vitamin I use does not contain any. The one I use is Enfamil Poly-Vi-Sol with Iron and I got it at Walgreens.

Can't remember the name of it. I think it begins with "pro" or pre. At either rate, it's in liquid form, which you put in their bottle along with the milk and drink it. Ask your local pharmacist, he / she can get it for you. But only give your child vitamins with Doctor's permission. You don't want to do damage.

babies at this age do not need vitamins, are you a victim of the pop a pill age?

Your baby should be getting all the vitimans that it needs from either the formula or breastmilk.
