Hi!

Anyone know if you have Pediasure in Finland. It is a milk drink for toddlers 1- 10yrs a nutritional supplement for them rather than them drinking regular milk. My son is lactose intollerant Or anything similar Lactose free with nutritional supplements for Toddlers??? Sometimes my son being that lovely age of 2 is a picky eater so it is good to give him one can a day or so to assure me that he is getting some supplements!!

Well, apparently yes, as it is "on the list" of medication that KELA pays either 75% or 50% back. Probably the only place to buy it is from a pharmacy though, (which means the price is somewhere between outrageous & rip-off). What you need to do is get a perscription from a doctor so then you can have fun battling with KELA for the rebate, and depending on the prescription you need to renew it every 3 months or so. About other supplements I'd suggest paying a visit to the doctor, the allergy hospital has very good specialists.

Lactose intollerance is very common here, so there are loads of things your son could easily take.

Hi Bianca
Have you got Pediasure in Finland? We are looking for it, but seems quite difficult to get.
