Patient's question:
The baby is five and a half months old and has had diarrhea for over a week. The doctor advised taking Montmorillonite powder and I also added probiotics for the baby. Three days ago, the baby also took cold medicine.Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None
What help is expected: Can the baby receive vaccinations if they are taking Montmorillonite powder and probiotics for diarrhea?
Doctor's answer:
Generally, when getting vaccinated, the basic requirement is that you should not have a cold, fever, nausea, vomiting, or medication within a week. Your baby is currently on medication, so it is best not to get vaccinated under anesthesia to avoid interfering with the effectiveness. It is recommended to wait until the condition is fully recovered before getting vaccinated after a week. For now, focus on caring for your baby's stomach and treating diarrhea. Take the medication prescribed by the doctor and consider cooking some porridge or thick rice soup, which can help protect the stomach and small intestine. Wishing your baby good health!
