Hello my baby is 10months old and his doctor has prescribed calcium to him, been using Gemcal for him. I want to know how much calcium is required for 10mo babies and is there any other syrup I can give him instead of gemcal. He even pukes whatever he’s eaten after I give him the syrup. Please help.
