You are welcome Sharmin :hugfriend

Zaini, it is the same here in Egypt too. Actually  international brands are sold 20 times more than it real price. This supplement i found i Dubai airport pharmacy and i got as much as i can and then either i will continue it if i have any friends travelling or i will just have a local brand. the bad thing about local brands is that they are in pills form and at the same time you don't have all the 4 things togather.

Sometimes i am worried about our children's stomach getting ulcers from all these pills and syrups they are taking :wah

Andy Battaglia:
Manal,

The point you brought up about giving kids all these pills is valid and reason to make sure that we use good quality supplements that don't contain a lot of junk fillers, colors and artificial flavorings. I will not take any supplement without reading the label first and there should be some standard in the minds of parents when choosing supplements.

Zaini:
Supplements can give ulcers?  ???

Zaini.

Hey Andy,

I know am hyping it a bit too much, but I don't have an option. I had been for my transfusion yesterday and asked the pharmacy whether I'll get Centrum Silver as its not marketed my Wyeth in India. He said yes, he could arrange for me but it would cost a bit more than what the actual cost is, as it is imported.

Now, I just want to finalize it with you that surely can I go ahead with this drug? Are you satisfied with its contents? I asked my doc too, he said as long as there in no iron in it, you can go ahead.


\peace/
