Echinaforce® Junior is ideal when you are looking for an effective product that offers your child daily immune support as well as helps prevent and treat colds, flu and their complications. Echinaforce Junior is specially formulated for children, with a pleasant orange-flavoured chewable tablet that's easy to take.
Echinaforce® Junior contains the same herbal extract of freshly harvested Echinacea purpurea that goes into our well known Echinaforce® Echinacea Drops and Tablets. It may be used by children (over the age of 2 years) to help strengthen their immune systems and fight the misery of colds and flu. If children do get sick, Echinaforce® Junior helps lessen the severity and duration of symptoms, so they’ll get better quicker. Also it helps to prevent the complications that often lead to otitis (ear infections), tonsillitis, sinusitis, bronchitis and pneumonia, which in turn means it can help reduce the need for antibiotics.
