How old should a child be to eat probiotics?

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How old does the child need to be to take probiotics?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, probiotics can only be taken after the age of two. If the baby is breastfed, there is no need to take probiotics. This bacteria mainly helps with digestion in the intestines, and it may not be possible to correct it now. However, around the age of 12, it can be corrected. It is recommended to consult with the orthodontics department in a regular hospital for the best solution.
