9 month old allergic to dairy and soy. No longer interested in breast feeding or formula. So only getting small amoubts of calcium. I requested a small supplement (equivalent of 200mg) per day as i do managed to get some in diet. Gp has prescribed TWO ml of sandoz calcium syrup. He says he was unsure as out of his speciality. However i not for low calcium diet sandoz suggest 10 to 30mls. Can you tell me correct dose? Also if i didnt supplement would the baby catch up later in life?? Thank you
