Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Can a two-month-old baby take fish oil?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally, babies can start taking vitamin D about a month after birth, depending on the situation. It is best to choose simple vitamin D drops. If you use cod liver oil, you need to be careful to avoid long-term use to prevent vitamin A poisoning. Cod liver oil promotes calcium absorption, but it does not contain calcium itself. In this case, you can give the baby a compound calcium preparation containing vitamin D for supplementation, such as Longmu Zhuanggu Granules, Calcium Carbonate D3, etc.
