A. For a 6-month-old baby, it's important to follow specific dosing recommendations and consult with your pediatrician before giving any supplements, including vitamin D3 and DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) drops. **Vitamin D3**: It's commonly recommended to give vitamin D3 to infants to support bone health, especially if they are breastfeeding or have limited sun exposure. The typical dose for infants is around 400 IU per day, but you should follow your pediatrician's guidance on the appropriate dosage. **DHEA**: DHEA is less commonly used in infants and is typically not a standard supplement for this age group. Its use should be carefully monitored by a healthcare provider due to potential side effects and the need for proper dosing. Always consult your pediatrician before starting any new supplements, especially when combining them. Your pediatrician can provide tailored advice based on your baby's specific needs and health status.
