If child was a term delivery or weight above 2.5kg, then vitamin D3 is sufficient till 1 year of age. No need of other multivitamins or drops.
If child was preterm delivery or weight was below 2.5kg at birth, then
Vitamin D3 400 iu daily till 1 year
Multivitamin drops (Visyneral Z) for 3 months, 5 drops twice a day
Vitcofol drops, 5 drops twice a day, for 3 months
Calcimax P for calcium, till 3 months.
Iron drops (Tonoferon) to start after 6 weeks, again for 3 months.
Other than vitamin D3, no drops required for more than 3 months
