A. you have to continue vitamin d3 supplement till you are not able to take the child in sunlight for at least 10 minutes daily. before 1 year of age : 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 10 to 15 minutes daily 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 sxupplement. after 1 year of age vit d drops dosage is 0.7ml once a day from 800units vitamin d drops.

A. For initial months it’s going to be five drops two times in the day from 7 to 12 months it is going to be 10 drops two times in the day and after that you can stop giving it still if you would want to continue with them then you kindly take an advice with your doctor for that
