Question
Is it appropriate to supplement zinc and calcium for a newborn baby after 17 days of birth?
Answer
Long-term excessive intake of vitamin A&D can lead to chronic poisoning symptoms, including joint pain, swelling, skin itching, chapped lips, fever, headache, dry vomiting, constipation, nausea, and vomiting. It is recommended to carefully observe if the baby shows symptoms of chronic vitamin A&D poisoning, such as pain and itching, although the baby cannot express it, they may manifest as crying and restlessness. If there are no related poisoning symptoms, you can continue with the supplementation.
