Returning to school after the summer is always a little "readjustment" – a new routine, a new sleep schedule, and, of course, more microbes in common areas. With a little preparation from the pharmacy, the first few weeks become much calmer. Below you will find a practical, ready list of what is worth having at home.
As classes start, children come into contact with many more viruses. Supplements with vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc are among the most popular this time of year: vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system. You will find options for small and large in the category Immune Support.
The transition from the free rhythm of summer to the school schedule is tiring. Children's multivitamins in chewable or effervescent form often help to fill the gaps of an unbalanced diet. See the suggestions in the category Vitamins & Energy. The most important "supplement", however, remains a proper breakfast and adequate hydration.
Lice return every school year and have nothing to do with cleanliness. It is good to have a thick comb and a preventive/repellant preparation ready, so you can react immediately at the first sign. Read in detail what to do in our complete guide to lice and find preparations in the category Anti-lice.
Proper handwashing remains the most effective way to limit the transmission of microbes. For times outside the home, a small antiseptic gel or hand sanitizer wipes in the bag make a difference before eating, after the toilet, after playing. See options in Antiseptics.
Two weeks before the start, begin to gradually shift bedtime by 15–20 minutes, so the body can adjust without a sudden change. Limit screens in the evening and keep a consistent wake-up time, even on the first weekend weeks.
Ideally a little before or with the start of school, so to "anticipate" the period of increased exposure to viruses. For dosage in children, ask your pharmacist.
Not necessarily. A balanced diet covers the needs; supplements help when there are gaps or increased needs. Consult a specialist.
With regular checks, avoiding common head items and preventive repellent preparations. See our detailed guide.
