A. Vitamin D drops are mandatory to be given to the child it really doesn’t matter whether it is India or Dubai for initial one year it is mandatory in India of course we have a better exposure but still it is mandatory but now should you be continuing with it or not your doctors can only advise you should consult your local doctor for that
