What is MULTI-12 PEDIATRIC?
MULTI-12 PEDIATRIC 1 MCG contains VITAMIN B12 (CYANOCOBALAMIN) : 1 MCG VITAMIN B2 (RIBOFLAVIN-5-PHOSPHATE) : 1.4 MG VITAMIN E (DL-ALPHA TOCOPHERYL ACETATE) : 7 UNIT VITAMIN B1 (THIAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE) : 1.2 MG VITAMIN A : 2300 UNIT PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE : 1 MG FOLIC ACID : 140 MCG ASCORBIC ACID : 80 MG DEXPANTHENOL : 5 MG VITAMIN D : 400 UNIT BIOTIN : 20 MCG NICOTINAMIDE : 17 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02236829, held by SABEX INC, supplied as LIQUID for INTRAVENOUS administration. Health Canada currently lists it as cancelled post market, status dated 26-Nov-2009. This Drug Identification Number is no longer authorized for sale in Canada, so Nexara does not supply it. The record is kept here because buyers still meet the number on old formularies, purchase orders and tender documents; Nexara can help identify an authorized alternative.
Is there a generic Vitamins in Canada, and who makes it?
Every market authorization holder with a Canadian DIN for this molecule, and how many of their listings Health Canada currently shows as marketed.
6 holders have a Canadian DIN containing Vitamins, across 9 DINs, of which 2 are currently marketed. Marketed count is the number that matters: an approval that is not marketed cannot be bought.
| Market authorization holder | DINs | Marketed | Brand names | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SANDOZ CANADA INCORPORATED | 3 | 2 | MULTI 1000, MULTI 12 INJECTION, MULTI-11 | Sourceable in Canada |
| AVENTIS PHARMA INC | 2 | 0 | M.V.I. 12, M.V.I. PAEDIATRIC | No marketed DIN |
| DAVID BULL LABORATORIES (PTY) LTD. | 1 | 0 | MULTI-VITAMINS FOR INFUSION LIQ | No marketed DIN |
| KRIPPS PHARMACY LTD. | 1 | 0 | MEGA-C-SODIUM INJ 250MG/ML | No marketed DIN |
| LYPHOMED, DIVISION OF FUJISAWA CANADA INC. | 1 | 0 | MVC 9 PLUS 3 INJ | No marketed DIN |
| SABEX INC | 1 | 0 | MULTI-12 PEDIATRIC | No marketed DIN |
Health Canada’s Drug Product Database does not flag which listing is the originator and which are subsequent-entry products, so Nexara does not label them here. Interchangeability is determined provincially, not federally — confirm for your province before a formulary switch. Nexara can confirm which of these is actually obtainable, and on what lead time, per order.
How is it supplied and stored?
Pack configuration, storage class and the handling constraints that drive cold-chain planning. One DIN can cover more than one pack size, and the pack — not the DIN — is what gets priced, shipped and invoiced.
| Strength on the label | 1 MCG |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | LIQUID |
| Route | INTRAVENOUS |
Pack detail is kept as a regulatory record. This DIN is no longer authorized for sale in Canada, so Nexara does not quote this pack.

Health Canada record and identifiers
The regulatory facts straight from the Drug Product Database, plus every identifier form Nexara accepts on a purchase order. A DIN written without its leading zeros is the commonest reason an order line fails to match.

What can be used instead?
Alternatives on every axis a buyer actually considers — the same molecule in another presentation, the same class, an adjacent class, or a fixed-dose combination. Every row is led by the marketed DIN count, because that is what can be bought this week.
1 · Same molecule, other Canadian presentations
2 of 9 Canadian DINs for this molecule are currently marketed. Marketed products are listed first.

2 · Same class — other molecules in ATC B05XC
| Molecule | Canadian brands | DINs | Marketed | Sourceable |

A molecule with zero marketed DINs cannot be sourced domestically, however many approvals it holds — if one of these sits on a formulary or in an older protocol, that is the line to check.
3 · Adjacent classes in ATC B05X
| ATC subgroup | Molecules | DINs | Marketed |
|---|---|---|---|
| B05XA | Calcium Chloride · Calcium Gluconate · Combinations Of Electrolytes · Electrolytes In Comb With Other Drugs · Magnesium Sulphate · +9 more | 136 | 51 |
| B05XX | Trometamol | 1 | 0 |
Not clinical advice. These tables describe what can be supplied in Canada, not what should be prescribed. Substitution within or across classes is a prescriber and pharmacist decision, and interchangeability is determined provincially.
What else is MULTI-12 PEDIATRIC called?
The same molecule, Vitamins, is registered under other names elsewhere. Buyers and prescribers searching from outside Canada — or working from a foreign prescription or tender document — often know it by one of these:
| Name | Script | Registered in |
|---|---|---|
| FruitiVits | Latin | Australia |
| Paediatric Seravit | Latin | Australia |
| Phlexy-Vits | Latin | Australia |
Names are taken from national medicine registers and published price lists. A product registered abroad is not authorized for sale in Canada unless it holds its own DIN; import is possible only through the routes Health Canada permits.
What is Vitamins called in other languages?
Buyers, prescribers and procurement teams outside Canada often search for the ingredient in their own script. These are phonetic renderings of the ingredient name Vitamins, published to help those searches reach this page.
| Language | Vitamins |
|---|---|
| German Deutsch | Vitamine |
These are transliterations of the ingredient name, generated automatically and published only where two independent checks agreed. They are not registered local trade names and carry no marketing authorisation in any market. Always confirm a product against its local registration before ordering.
Can this still be bought in Canada?
No. This Drug Identification Number is cancelled post market in Health Canada's Drug Product Database, so the product is no longer authorized for sale in Canada and Nexara does not supply it. This page is kept as a regulatory record.

Ordering questions
Who can buy this from Nexara?
Licensed entities only. Nexara holds Health Canada establishment licence DEL 3-002896-A and ships only to a licensed address. Patients and unlicensed buyers are routed to a partner pharmacy.
Is there a minimum order?
Yes, set per product line and per pack multiple rather than on the order total, so you are never asked to buy a part-pack. The minimum for this line is confirmed with your quote.
What is the lead time?
Confirmed per order at quotation, and it depends on current stock position and whether the product is in shortage.
Why is there no price on this page?
Nexara quotes a delivered Canadian price per order, against a verified licence. Foreign list prices are published on incompatible bases and are not a guide to what any buyer can obtain here, so this page shows which markets list the molecule and on what basis, and nothing more.
Can Nexara supply this for a clinical trial?
Yes — comparator and background-therapy supply, including sourcing from other markets where a Canadian pack will not satisfy the protocol. Clinical trial supply.
