Patient's question:
Recently for the past half month, the baby hasn't been sleeping well and has been waking up frequently. The doctor at the hospital checked and said it's active rickets. The doctor prescribed Star vitamin D drops, two pills a day, and oral calcium gluconate solution, one bottle taken twice a day. However, I noticed on the instructions that taking too much vitamin D can lead to poisoning. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the situation you mentioned shows a clear deficiency of calcium. At this time, it is recommended to actively supplement calcium for regulatory treatment.Medical advice: Currently, it is advised to take calcium supplements and cod liver oil under the guidance of a doctor for regulatory treatment. This way, taking cod liver oil will not lead to an overdose. Once the rickets are under stable control, you can gradually reduce the dosage of cod liver oil.
At the same time, it is also important to consume appropriate amounts of protein-rich supplementary foods for regulatory treatment.
