How long should you take fish oil supplements after 5 months?

Patient's question:

What fish oil should be supplemented? I used a box of ETOUCHIN. It seems that the unit content is high for the baby. According to the instructions, long-term supplementation may cause poisoning. I also want to ask how long to supplement? Are there any other supplements needed?

Doctor's answer:

Betamethasone is also known as vitamin A and D drops. Take one pill at a time. Use scissors to cut a small opening and squeeze the contents into the baby's mouth. If breastfeeding, the mother can swallow the shell. It is recommended to get more sun in winter, as the skin can produce vitamin D, which helps with calcium absorption. It is advised not to supplement daily. Instead, take it every other day or three times a week, for example. This is safer. Over-supplementation can lead to poisoning, and it may also cause the fontanelles to close prematurely, interfering with brain development.
