Flintstones Chewable Vitamins are a popular brand of multivitamin supplements designed for children, produced by Bayer. They were first introduced in 1968 and have since become a staple in many households. The vitamins are shaped like characters from the popular animated television series, The Flintstones, which adds to their appeal for children.

These include Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Folic Acid, Biotin, Calcium, Iron, and Zinc. The exact composition may vary depending on the specific product variant.

Usage[edit | edit source]

Flintstones Chewable Vitamins are typically recommended for children aged two years and older. The recommended dosage is one tablet per day, although this may vary depending on the child's age, weight, and overall health status.
