At preschool age, children need the maximum amount of vitamins and minerals. Since nutrition does not fully meet the growing body’s need for them, one has to resort to multivitamin preparations. Vitamins "Alphabet Kindergarten" are considered one of the most effective among similar drugs. Their production was based on results obtained from laboratory research procedures showing the effects of separate and combined intake of beneficial components.

Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Alphabet Kindergarten is a vitamin and mineral complex developed specifically for children aged 3–7 years in the form of a biologically active food supplement. The active components of the product are divided into 3 tablets according to the nature of substance compatibility and interaction. Separate intake of tablets with an interval of 4-6 hours allows vitamins and minerals to be fully absorbed, increasing their effectiveness and ensuring the product is hypoallergenic.
The product contains no artificial colors and does not cause allergic reactions.
Action
Alphabet Shkolnik is the world's first vitamin and mineral complex for children over 7 years old, created taking into account the interaction of components. This increases the effectiveness of vitamin prophylaxis by more than 30% and ensures hypoallergenicity.
Alphabet Shkolnik reliably provides the child with the vitamins and minerals necessary for his development. The composition and dosage were developed by the Research Institute of Nutrition of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences based on the latest scientific achievements. Does not contain artificial colors. The colors of the tablets are determined by the vitamins and minerals they contain.
Efficiency and safety depend decisively on taking into account the interaction of components. This is an elementary truth of modern medicine.
How can we take into account the interaction of components? Vitamins and minerals interact during storage, during absorption and during the implementation of biological functions in the body, which can lead to the loss of activity of some of them, and, consequently, their beneficial properties.
Negative interactions during storage (for example, oxidation of some components of the tablet even before it is taken) can be prevented using known methods: multilayer tableting, microencapsulation, etc. But the interaction of components in the digestive tract and in the internal environment of the body cannot be eliminated using similar methods. It is physiologically necessary, and this is required by strict pharmaceutical standards, for the vitamin-mineral complex tablet to completely dissolve within 1 hour. The process of assimilation of vitamins and minerals lasts 4-6 hours, and during this time the negative interactions are fully manifested. Thus, they can only be avoided by taking the antagonistic components of the complex at different times.
When creating the Shkolnik Alphabet, all facts known to science about the interaction of vitamins and minerals were collected and systematized. Taking into account these data, the complete set of components was divided into three tablets, each of which contained only compatible substances. Antagonist substances are found in different tablets. When taking the tablets separately, all vitamins and minerals will be completely absorbed, which means the effectiveness of the complex will increase.
What is the benefit of separate intake?
1. Provides higher efficiency compared to traditional (single-tablet) drugs:
2. The likelihood of developing a number of undesirable reactions is excluded:
- the oxidative reaction between vitamins C and B12 disrupts the entire process of absorption of the latter (not only from drugs, but also from food);
- Vitamin B1 can cause an allergic type reaction, and the presence of vitamin B12 can aggravate it.
3. The benefits of synergy remain when the components of the drug work better together than separately:
- Vitamin D promotes optimal absorption and efficient use of calcium;
- calcium helps the absorption of vitamin B12;
- Vitamin C restores the protective (antioxidant) properties of vitamin E.
How to take Alphabet Shkolnik?
The daily dose consists of three tablets of different colors, taken at intervals of 4-6 hours during meals (for example, breakfast, lunch and dinner). The sequence of administration can be any. It is important that three tablets are taken during the day: red, orange, yellow.
Maximum effectiveness is achieved when taken separately. But if the child forgot to take one or two tablets on time, then the missed ones can be taken along with the next one or simply resumed with any tablet.

In any case, if any negative reactions occur on the part of the body, you need to consult a doctor, perhaps he will select a drug with a similar effect, but with a different composition of active ingredients.
