multivitamin - chewable for DS1, gummy for DS2
fish oil - capsule for DS1, new liquid for DS2
digestive enzymes - new chewable for both (one with each meal)
probiotic - new powder for both (once a day)
melatonin - tablet for DS1 most nights at his request (really helps him fall asleep)
DS2 can't swallow pills yet, so I have to find chewable and gummy things for him. He was taking a gummy fish oil, but it wasn't that great of a product. This new liquid one is excellent - it's berry flavored and he got used to taking it after the first few times.
Sarge mentioned possibly doing targeted amino acid therapy with the boys in a few months once their digestion is improved. He recommends continuing to cut out dairy while adding in digestive enzymes and probiotics. The amino acid therapy looks interesting, I need to read up more on that. The enzymes and probiotics are an easy addition and I'm curious if we will see any difference.
If you want to learn more about melatonin (good stuff!) you can read more about it on the melatonin wikipedia page.
