Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. 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 betweend 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 ofx age vit d drops dosage is 0.7ml once a day from 800units vitamin d drops.
RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. You should give it for at least one year of birth after that if you need to continue the doctors are going to advise you but otherwise after completing the time of one year you can quit giving vitamin D supplement to the child
