Nordic Naturals Baby's Vitamin D3 Liquid – 400 IU Daily Vitamin D Drops for Breastfed Infants

Nordic Naturals Baby's Vitamin D3 Liquid – AAP-Recommended Daily Vitamin D for Infants

Nordic Naturals Baby's Vitamin D3 Liquid delivers 400 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in a single drop — the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended daily dose for exclusively or partially breastfed infants from birth. Breast milk alone provides very little vitamin D, making supplementation essential for healthy bone development, immune function, and calcium absorption in infants. The purified olive oil base and unflavoured formula make it easy to administer to newborns.

• 400 IU vitamin D3 per drop — AAP recommended daily infant dose
• D3 (cholecalciferol) — the most bioavailable form
• In purified olive oil — unflavoured for easy acceptance
• Suitable from birth for breastfed infants
• Nordic Naturals — premium quality, third-party tested

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do breastfed babies need vitamin D supplements?

Breast milk contains very little vitamin D — typically less than 25 IU per litre, far below the 400 IU per day recommended for infants. Unlike formula (which is fortified with vitamin D), breastfed babies rely on sunlight exposure or supplementation to meet their needs. Vitamin D deficiency in infants can lead to rickets and impaired immune development.

When should I start giving my baby vitamin D drops?

The AAP and many international health bodies recommend starting vitamin D supplementation within the first few days of life for breastfed infants. Formula-fed babies consuming more than 1 litre of formula per day typically don't need additional supplementation as formula is D3-fortified.

How do I give Nordic Naturals Baby's D3 to my infant?

The dropper provides 1 drop = 400 IU. Place directly into the baby's mouth, on the nipple before feeding, or mix into a small amount of pumped breast milk or formula. Administer once daily.

Is Nordic Naturals Baby's D3 third-party tested?

Yes. Nordic Naturals tests all products through independent third-party laboratories for purity and potency, and publishes certificates of analysis (CoA). Their products are free from heavy metals, PCBs, and other contaminants.

Does vitamin D3 need to be refrigerated?

Store in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration is not required but can extend shelf life. Keep out of direct sunlight. Always check the product label for current storage guidance.
