Question: Hello, my baby is 3 weeks old. Is it safe to give them Abidec multivitamin drops?

Answer: Hi! You can give Abidec Multivitamin Drops to a 3-week-old baby, but only after consulting your pediatrician. Here are some key points:

Who Needs It: Abidec is often recommended for premature or low-birth-weight babies to ensure they get essential vitamins. Dosage: The typical dose is 0.3 mL daily, but this can vary, especially for premature babies. Important Note: If your baby is drinking more than 500 mL of formula daily, additional vitamins may not be necessary since formula is already fortified. Allergies: Abidec contains peanut oil, so avoid it if there’s a risk of peanut or soya allergy.

Always check with your doctor to confirm whether your baby needs it and to get the correct dosage. Let me know if you have more questions
