Guest guest Posted July 15, 2000 Report Share Posted July 15, 2000 Hi, Re the " Flintstone's " Vitamins. They have low levels of B12 6-8 mcgs vs. 18 in the Wal-Mart OneSource. The big vitamins are big because they have more Calcium and other vitamins and minerals. Please avoid the Kids chewable vitamins over the long term. RR Rutledge, M.D., F.A.C.S.
