How to Increase Vitamin D Levels?

Patient's Query

Hi mother breast feeding 16 months child Vitamin d is 5 ng/,ml Kindly suggest Any medicine and how to take

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

It seems that Vitamin D Vitamin D is lacking in your child's body. This can happen if the child does not spend enough time in nature or does not eat the necessary foods. Low levels can lead to weak bones and immunity. But you don't have to worry a lot as children can be given Vitamin D drops and using the drops once in their food will be sufficient. In addition, sunlight exposure for about 10-15 minutes also helps boost Vitamin D.

It is alarming, as it indicates that your mother is not well. Her high blood sugar level of 217.5 mg/dl is worrying. Missing her evening Diapride M2 500mg dose might be the reason. The high content of blood sugar can be the reason for symptoms like thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, and blurred vision. Persuade her to drink plenty of water, take a light, healthy snack, and take her medication. In the case of non-improvement, it's necessary to get professional medical assistance.
