Abstract

It is the author observation that the pharmaceutical compound D3 Vitamin Colecalciferol, in the oily presentation with 200.000 IU per 10 ml, only lasts 3 to 4 months instead of the theoretical 300 days. The author states three hypothesis to explain this fact: 1.Less volume in the flask. 2.Drops of bigger size. 3.Giving more drops to the infant. It is concluded that the problem is in the dropper itself.
