Patient's question:
The baby is four months old and has had loose stools for over ten days. Initially, the stools were yellow, but after taking Amoxicillin granules, they turned green. The medication was then stopped. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
First, pay attention to the fact that it is necessary to carefully check your child's stool before starting antibiotic treatment. Because antibiotics should only be used if there is inflammation; if there is no inflammation and antibiotics are used, it may further disrupt the intestinal flora, leading to digestive problems such as green, loose stools. Therefore, it is currently recommended to orally supplement with probiotics for your child, and when nausea and vomiting occur frequently, oral medication such as Montmorillonite can be taken. It is also recommended to take your child's stool for a thorough examination. The above advice is for the question "My baby is four months old and has had loose stools for over ten days, what should I do?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
