Could giving my 7-month-old baby Zincovit syrup instead of Zincovit drops (0.5 ml daily for two months) cause smelly urine and stool, and has it harmed his stomach?
Giving your baby 0.5 ml of Zincovit syrup instead of the drops actually means he received a much lower dose of multivitamins, as syrups are typically less concentrated than drops. It is highly unlikely to have caused any harm to his stomach. The changes in the smell of his urine and stool are very common as his body processes vitamins (especially B-complex) or adapts to new solid foods at seven months. To ensure he gets the correct nutritional support, please switch back to the prescribed Zincovit drops. Feel free to consult your pediatrician for personalized reassurance.
