Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
QUESTION | My child is having Equazen baby and is now three years old. I would now like to switch to Equazen chews. Should I start with the higher dose for 12 weeks, as recommended?
ANSWER | The switch from Equazen baby to Equazen chews at this age is indeed helpful. From about three years of age, the fatty acid EPA is more important for a child. After Equazen baby you can immediately start with 2 chewables a day. The higher amount is mainly intended for children who take these fatty acids for the first time and for children with an increased need.
