Multivitamins contain a range of vitamins and minerals that are essential for health and normal bodily function and provide a safeguard to the diet. Multivitamin supplements are a great way to help ensure you get enough of the right vitamins and minerals in your diet every day. We have developed a range of award-winning multivitamin tablets and capsules to ensure there is something for everyone.

Gelatin is the most commonly used animal ingredient in multivitamins. The capsule shells are made up of ‘gelatin’ which is of animal origin, hence the non-veg mark.
Whereas most of the Meyers’ tablet and liquid multivitamins are suitable for vegetarians.

At present Meyers do not have any multivitamin supplements suitable for vegans.

All our products source are from Halal certified.

The following products are suitable for men and women of all ages, but in particular for infants and small children:

• Calcimax
• Kidicare
• Colicaid
• Wellbaby

Scientific opinion varies, but it is often thought the evening is the best time, because this is when the body’s mineral levels fluctuate most. However, it is important to ensure the supplements are taken with your largest meal of the day to maximise nutrient absorption, whether this is your lunch or evening meal.

Multivitamin products can cause brightly coloured urine in some cases but this is perfectly harmless, and often due to the actual colour of some of the nutrients e.g. vitamin B2 and folic acid. However, if discolouration occurs every time water is passed, and also when the product is stopped for a couple of days, it may be worth seeking medical advice to ensure there is no other underlying cause.

We recommend that all our multivitamin and mineral capsule supplements be taken with your largest meal of the day, on a full stomach, to ensure maximum absorption. This can also help prevent cases of mild nausea, which can be experienced by some people if the supplements are taken on an empty stomach or with a light meal.

Swallowing the capsules or tablets with plenty of water or juice is important to ensure they are washed down the throat properly.

It is not recommended to take the capsules with a warm drink because this can accelerate the capsule or tablet disintegration process. This may cause the capsules to release the vitamin and mineral powdered contents prematurely in the throat.

While it may not be harmful, it is not recommended to take more than one multivitamin and mineral supplement at the same time, because this may lead to crossover and unnecessary doubling up of certain nutrients. We recommend that you select the product, which represents the main reason you wish to take a multivitamin or contact Meyers for further advice first. Generally, Calcimax is the only supplement, which can be used alongside any of Meyers multivitamin supplements. Otherwise two products e.g. Menopace and Premence can be taken on alternate days.

Most of our comprehensive formulas include a range of B vitamins including Folic Acid.
If you are pregnant, the Pregnacare range includes optimum quantity of Folic acid to support you during pregnancy.
Many of our other products – such as Feroglobin B12 Liquid, Feroglobin B12 capsules, Immunace extra tablets include Folic acid as part of their formula. You can see which products include Folic Acid by checking the ingredients listed on each product page under the ‘Nutritional Information’ section.
