Hi,
Welcome To HCM & Thanks For Asking Your Query Here


Zincofer is a multivitamin supplement and is a good choice by ur dr

As u did not mention the weight of baby but Your Dr would have consider the weight and age of baby before prescribing the dose so it can be given if baby is well tolerating it ,if there is no allergic reaction by any of its content ,if there is no digestive issue then Zincofer is completely safe for your baby

multivitamins are supplements and not a medicine and How long you will need to keep giving the multivitamin to your baby will be decided only by ur dr based upon the improvements
and about your last query for adding water , you can give water after giving zincofer to ur baby

finally i would strongly suggest you to keep following ur dr and be regular in checkup and medicines

I hope it help
Thanks & Get well Soon
