Question

After the newborn is 12 days old, I want to know when they can start taking Erycin supplements and how to take them correctly.

Answer

According to medical advice, newborns can begin taking fish liver oil supplements, such as Erycin, from 14 days after birth, with just one pill per day. For the method and dosage of taking Erycin, it is recommended to consult a doctor or pharmacist and follow their advice. Additionally, unless there are symptoms of calcium deficiency, there is no need for extra calcium supplements. Normal diet and improved feeding can meet the requirements. As the child grows and outdoor activities increase, it is usually no longer necessary to continue supplementing with vitamin D.
