Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. you have to continue Vitamin D3 supplement till you are not able to take the child in sunlight.
if you are giving 400 units you have to give 1ml everyday and if you're giving 800 units you have to give 0.5 ml everyday.
the thing is that you have to keep the child in sunlight for at least half an hour between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for proper vitamin D exposure.
So if you are able to take the child in sunlight you can stop vitamin D supplement
no need to give multivitamin supplements if the growth of the child is proper
