Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. yes
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 bdetween 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.
after 1 year of asge vit d drops dosage is 0.7ml once a day from 800units vitamin d drops. s

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy2 years agoA. Young children should still have vitamin drops, even if they get out in the sun. The Department of Health and Social Care recommends: Babies from birth to 1 year of age who are being breastfed should be given a daily supplement containing 8.5 to 10 micrograms of vitamin D to make sure they get enough.
