Question
My child is one year and two months old, having learned to walk a month ago, but takes wide steps while walking. He consumed two boxes of Vitamin AD during the postpartum period but hasn’t taken any calcium supplements since then. Now I’m worried about his possible calcium deficiency. Can I give him Gluconate Calcium and Zinc Oral Solution to supplement calcium? How much should he take daily?
Answer
You can give your child Gluconate Calcium and Zinc Oral Solution, taking it twice a day, one bottle each time. To promote calcium absorption, don’t forget to give him Cod Liver Oil to supplement Vitamin D. Additionally, it’s recommended that your child drink plenty of water, eat fresh vegetables and fruits, avoid catching colds, and don’t overexpose him to extreme cold temperatures. Encourage more sun exposure and ensure he gets adequate rest. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish your child good health!
