Is B-N-C Neo mv necessary for 1 month nb

My baby boy is 22 days old, born by C-section at 38+6 weeks, weighing 2.8 kg at birth. He is feeding well, has 10+ wet diapers daily and is otherwise healthy. Our pediatrician prescribed B-N-C Neo Drops, 0.5 mL twice daily. The product contains DHA, multiple vitamins/minerals and 400 IU vitamin D per 1 mL. I would like a second opinion from pediatricians: Is this multivitamin/multimineral supplement routinely necessary for a healthy, term newborn who is feeding and growing well? Would vitamin D supplementation alone generally be sufficient? Is there any concern with giving B-N-C Neo at this dose?
