When you need it
Vitamin D drops are something pediatricians commonly discuss in the first days or weeks after birth, especially for breastfed or combination-fed babies. Whether and how long your baby needs them, often through around 12 months, is a decision to make with your pediatrician.
What to look for
Ask your pediatrician which product and dose they recommend before buying anything. Look for a concentration that matches their guidance, since products vary widely in how much vitamin D each drop contains. A single-drop format can be easier to give than a full dropper. Check for unnecessary additives if your baby has sensitivities.
