Question
My baby’s teeth are growing slowly, and their height is not increasing as quickly (they are almost 8 months old), and their appetite is generally poor. I would like to know: Which form of calcium supplement (liquid calcium or calcium tablets) is better, and which brand of calcium supplement should I choose (liquid calcium or calcium tablets)?
Answer
Based on the description, your baby may need to take calcium supplements, such as Longmu Strong Bone Granules. This is a compound preparation of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, where the traditional Chinese medicine part can regulate the spleen and stomach, increase appetite and absorption ability; the Western medicine part supplements calcium and vitamin D, which helps promote the absorption of calcium and can be used for the treatment and prevention of rickets, osteomalacia, etc. It also has a therapeutic effect on symptoms such as excessive sweating, night terrors, loss of appetite, poor digestion, and slow growth and development.
