Vitakruid Vitamin K baby dropsRecommended by the Health Council and midwives
Immediately after birth, all babies are given 1,000 mcg of vitamin K. Infants do not yet have the right intestinal bacteria to produce vitamin K themselves during the first three months. Moreover, they receive relatively little vitamin K through the placenta and breast milk. Therefore, vitamin K levels are immediately supplemented.
When and how much?
The dose of vitamin K that the baby receives from the midwife after birth is sufficient for the first week. From day 8 until the end of month 4, an additional 150 mcg of vitamin K is therefore recommended daily.
