Vit D dosage for infants

I have been administering an Australian brand of Vit D liquid drops to my daughter since birth who is 10 months old now. The dosage advised on the package and that recommended by doctors for her age is 0.5 ml per day. Now I am looking for an Indian brand to replace this but I see that all the drops here says that 0.5ml is equal to 400IU while the Australian brand was 0.5ml=200IU. Which is the correct dosage? How much should be given? Also is there an Indian brand of VitD drops in strawberry flavour available because my daughter is not liking any other now after been taking the other one.

Red spot in face

Dear Doctor. Need your kind advice regarding this issue. My 1yr old son has developed few red patches in face and in right leg. Looks wise it's red and uneven. No new medicine added recently so ruling out the allergy part. This has been visible since a week now. No irritation or uneasiness reported by kid. All other daily routine seems normal. May you please look into this and suggest the next step. Picture attached for your review.
