Bioavailability
Proven higher compliance through clinical studies – kids keep taking their ConCordix!
• In 2012 an independent study investigating compliance rates was conducted amongst 423 8yr old children in a leading Scandinavian hospital. Groups of children were asked to take either soft gels or ConCordix® for 16 weeks.
• 87.5% of the children finished the trial (taking 4 ConCordix softdrops every day for 16 weeks)
• In two previous clinical trials using the same protocol with softgels, only 22.5% on average finished the trial (taking 4 softgels every day for 16 weeks)
• Kids are more likely to continue taking ConCordix® because they do not need water, they are chewable and taste very well.
• ConCordix® provides a very strong solution for mothers who want to give their children vitamin supplements over a period of time.
