Age changed what to do now?

Sambucol have changed their age recommendation from 1 to 12 years old to 3 plus for the liquid! It has been amazing helping my one year old not get too poorly when he catches things and I wanted to continue purchasing it.

They say they've changed the age recommendation to comply with global standards but haven't changed the formulation. But still now recommend the 6 months plus powder for up to 3 years instead.

Not sure whether to stick to the liquid for one year old.

Oh yes they do you're right. It's confusing as boots and other places have changed and sambucol have advised powder now till 3 years old even though they say formulaton hasnt changed. Not sure how effective the powder is.
