actually, polyvisol has 9 supplements.  Trivisol only has 3.   Our pedi said polyvisol is better for preemies so that is what we use.

Poly-vi-sol also contains iron while tri-vi-sol doesn't

Your only half right.

Tri = 3  Poly = multiple, 9 I think.

We started using poly, but DD HATED it!!!  So we switched to Tri.  She does much better with tri.  So unless their is a particular reason you need poly, I recommend tri.

This.  Actually we use the generic rx becasue it was cheaper than otc for us.

If you are using this for Vitamin D supplement, Whole Foods makes a pure vitamin d supplement with no artificial colors/flavors added.  Vitamin D is all my pedi said we needed to supplement for and I am BF.
