My son is 7 months old. He was born in chennai and there the pediatrician has given only vit d3 syrup and iron syrup till 1yr.
After shifting to hyderabad, we consulted a local pediatrician where the doc prescribed bevon vitamin drops 0.5ml and calcimax 2.5ml , both syrups twice a day.
Is calcimax required for 7 months old baby? Which doc should I follow.
Only vitamin D and iron are recommended because their deficiencies are very common in kids. Other vitamins don't have any clear benefit. Follow your first pediatrician
