This medicine is likely to not help or prevent as is basic vitamins.
Some children can have pitryasis alba, white patches which can be diagnosed by any paediatrician who has seen this before.
However, without any photos or further details of the rash it is not possible to support you here.
Maybe book an appiointment with a confident Paediatrician or a Dermatologist locally
