Patient's question:
Started taking fish oil, giving the baby one pill every other day. Is the dosage not enough? Because I heard that the daily requirement of vitamin D for babies is 400 international units. The baby has been drinking formula milk, so calcium supplements haven't been added. However, recently the baby has been waking up at night, crying before bed, sweating, and easily waking up.Doctor's answer:
The condition of your child is experiencing symptoms caused by calcium deficiency, which generally leads to symptoms such as frequent irritability, restlessness, and poor appetite. The condition of your child requires active calcium supplementation treatment. The condition of your child is advised to first pay attention to rest, and a light, warm, and easily digestible diet is very important. It is recommended that your child actively take Vitamin AD drops for treatment, with 2 drops per dose, twice a day. Additionally, it is recommended to take gluconate zinc calcium for treatment, which is highly effective. It is beneficial to spend more time in sunlight. Wishing your child good health.
