Abstract :
Introduction Vit D level is low in human milk (20-60 IU/Lit) thus dialy supplement of 400 Vit D is advised since birth for all infants. On the other hand upper limit dose for long term Vit D intake is 1000 IU/day for children less than one year of age. Excessive Vit D more than upper limit by physicians or parents can cause hypervitaminoseD. We report a rare case of hypervitaminose D in two months old infant.
