Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Preterm infants should receive iron supplementation after 2 months,not 6.The basis for these recommendations is that during the first 6 months of a full-term infant's life,only minimal amounts of iron are required.This guideline varies depending on the health of the infant and the type of feeding.Note that a premature infant needs iron supplementation before breast-fed or formula-fed healthy infants do.
