A member asked:

Is okay for a 10 year old to take a daily vitamin and a fiber gummy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes..but: If the kid has a normal nutritionally balanced diet there is no need for either. Most of what is in both ends up in the urine or poop within a day or two. If you choose to do so to insure adequate intake it is fine.
