Although I have not used this particular brand I do give Reptile Vitamins to my non feeding Royals in their drinking water. I think it doesn't harm for them to get some vitamins down them. One of mine hadn't eaten for over seven months but didn't lose any significant weight and I put that down partly to the vitamin supplements.
If you decide to give your Royals vitamins please be careful to follow the dosage instructions as an overdose CAN do harm to their health.

Warmest Wishes

I'm currently using Reptasol by Euro Rep ltd, although I have used others, I'm not what you'd call 'Brand Loyal' !!
