General sale medicine
Always read the label and patient information leaflet before use. Ask our pharmacist if you're unsure whether this product is right for you.
Not for children under 6
Metatone contains vitamin B1 and mineral glycerophosphates: check with a pharmacist before use if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or taking other supplements, and don't use it as a substitute for a varied diet. Tiredness that lasts more than a few weeks, or comes with weight loss, breathlessness or pale skin, needs a GP and a blood test, not a tonic.
Product overview
About Metatone Tonic
The classic pick-me-up for after a cold or flu: Metatone combines vitamin B1 (thiamine), which the body needs to turn food into energy, with calcium, potassium, sodium and manganese glycerophosphates in a pleasant original-flavour tonic. For adults and children from 6 when you're feeling tired and run down, whether after illness, a stressful few weeks or a poor spell of eating. 300ml bottle.
Why a tonic
Appetite drops during a cold and so does your intake of the vitamins and minerals that recovery needs. Metatone is a licensed medicine rather than a supplement, with a long track record of helping people feel back to themselves in the weeks after being ill. It contains no caffeine or stimulants, so the lift is nutritional rather than a jolt.
How to take
Adults and children over 12: one or two 5ml spoonfuls two or three times a day. Children 6 to 12: one 5ml spoonful two or three times a day. Not for children under 6. Take after meals.
Good to know
Check with a pharmacist before use if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, or already take a multivitamin, so the totals stay sensible. Tiredness that lasts beyond a few weeks, or comes with weight loss, breathlessness or pale skin, needs a GP and a blood test rather than a tonic. Also in a 500ml bottle.

Frequently asked questions
How long should I take Metatone?
Two or three weeks after an illness is typical. If you still feel run down after that, see a GP rather than carrying on indefinitely.
Does it contain sugar?
Yes, it's a sweetened syrup; allow for it if you have diabetes, or ask a pharmacist about alternatives.
Is it a substitute for a multivitamin?
No; it's a targeted B1 and mineral tonic for the weeks after being ill. A balanced diet, or a general multivitamin, covers the rest.
