Other Tips:

•     Try not to mix Nutrivene in front of your child.

•     Refrigerating Nutrivene may reduce some of the vitamin taste.

•     If possible, don’t let your child know when he/she is getting Nutrivene in foods and drinks.

•     Don’t make giving Nutrivene an unpleasant experience.  If you have other children who are taking vitamins or if you and/or your spouse take dietary supplements, make it a ritual to take your supplements together so that your child doesn’t feel he is the only one who has to take them.

For Infants:

If your infant is objecting to the taste of Nutrivene in formula or breast milk, try putting Nutrivene in a small amount of formula or breast milk and put in an oral syringe.  Squirt the Nutrivene mixture towards the back of the mouth so that you are missing most of your infant’s taste buds.  Or, squirt the liquid between the gums and cheek and gently pinch your infant’s cheek to trigger his/her swallowing reflex.  You may also provide the Nutrivene (except NightTime Formula) in bottles throughout the day so that you are using a smaller amount of Nutrivene with each feeding.

If you are having difficulty with the bottle nipples clogging when using Nutrivene, you may want to purchase Evenflo Juice Crosscut Nipples.

Note:  Do not subject Nutrivene to prolonged extreme temperatures such as freezing or boiling.
