Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How much zinc deficiency should a 12-month-old baby have before supplementation is recommended?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it is related to a lack of vitamins and trace elements. Generally, taking them in moderation is recommended. You can take Gluconate Zinc Oral Solution and follow the instructions on the label. For calcium deficiency, you can use Gluconate Calcium Lozenges (dissolve in water and take orally). While, you should also supplement with Vitamin D (such as: Eken or Vitamin D drops) to promote calcium absorption.
