The best time for neonatal calcium supplementation is generally when the child has early symptoms of calcium deficiency. Generally, full-term infants can start calcium supplementation two weeks after birth, while premature infants, low weight infants or twins can generally start calcium supplementation one week after birth, which can promote the growth and development of children and prevent the occurrence of rickets.
