Calcium supplement wrong dosage

Hi there, have accidentally given my child (19 months old) a wrong dosage of calcium supplement (which includes zinc and magnesium) for a period of time (about 2 bottles worth). We have stopped the supplement for about 2 to 3 weeks as it ran out of stock and I just realised that I have given the wrong dosage. My child seems fine at this point and has no obvious signs of discomfort but I am worried. Would you see a doctor and would the right course of action be to take a blood test? TIA!

Hi May I know if what happened to your kid after this? I realized I have given the same dosage also with my child 🥲

Hey Shanice, What was the dose you gave? Perhaps check if it exceeds the upper limit yet?

How is your kid now? Feels ok right?
