Is it normal for a baby to have diarrhea after eating children's sugar pills?

Patient's question:

My baby just had the oral polio vaccine and is having diarrhea—is that normal? Will he get better on his own?

Doctor's answer:

After taking the sugar pills, there may be a possibility of nausea and vomiting again. It is generally not particularly severe and usually improves on its own. If there is frequent diarrhea and it is watery, it is recommended to use abdominal patches and probiotics to relieve nausea and vomiting. It is important to drink more water to prevent dehydration. Pay attention to preventing colds, especially abdominal colds. If breastfeeding, the mother should eat warm and easily digestible foods. This is the advice for the question "Is it normal for my baby to have diarrhea after just taking the polio oral vaccine?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
