Hi, I Have A 15 Day Old Baby Boy. At
Hi,
I have a 15 day old baby boy. At birth he had a low calcium level at 7.6 so the doc had prescribed calcimax plus 5 ml twice daily. The medicine being a little dense the baby found it difficult to swallow. So the doc replaced the medicine with macalvit. But he did not mention the dosage. How much quantity and how many times should I give macalvit to the baby?
