Patient's question:
The baby has been sleeping poorly recently, waking up several times every hour. The head keeps rubbing against the pillow, and the legs keep kicking. The doctor recommended calcium supplementation, so I bought gluconate calcium. How should it be taken? How many times a day? How much per time? The baby weighs 16 pounds. After taking fish oil for a while, it didn't work. How should it be taken?Doctor's answer:
The phenomenon you mentioned about the child's poor sleep quality is mainly caused by a lack of calcium in the child, which is somewhat related to the child's poor nutrition. If the child needs to take gluconate calcium oral solution, it is recommended that you give the child half a dose, twice a day. In this way, the child's poor deep sleep quality will improve. Wishing the child a speedy recovery.The above is the suggestion for the question "How should a four-month-old baby take gluconate calcium?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
