A. it is important for you to understand that any medicine except multivitamins which is given to children have side effects on the child. they should not be given on daily basis but should be given only when required. meet your doctor who will tell you what is the indication and how many times it can be given.s (this applies to anti-colic medicines as well as digestive medicines/ enzymes, gripe water, bonnisan, gutti etc of any branch that is allopathic or homoeopathic or ayurvedic). s

A. At 6 months and 10 days old, your baby's main source of nutrition should still be breast milk or formula, along with the introduction of solid foods as per your pediatrician's recommendations. Vitamin D supplementation is commonly recommended for breastfed babies, as breast milk may not provide enough vitamin D on its own. It's great that you're already giving your baby vitamin D supplements. As for other supplements or medicines, it's crucial to follow your pediatrician's advice. They can assess your baby's growth and development and recommend any additional supplements if necessary. Janam Gutti or other traditional remedies may have cultural significance, but it's essential to consult with your pediatrician before giving them to your baby to ensure their safety and effectiveness. Your pediatrician can provide guidance tailored to your baby's specific needs.
