Patient's question:
My baby is seven months old. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that he has a high fever and inflammation, as well as anemia. The doctor prescribed Xiao'er Fengre Qing oral liquid, Cefdinir dispersible tablets, and ferrous succinate oral solution. I don't have milk anymore either, so the doctor gave me some Chinese herbal medicine to boost milk production, and I'm taking it now. I'm not sure if the baby has diarrhea because of the medicine he's taking, or if it's due to the Chinese herbal medicine I'm consuming affecting him.Doctor's answer:
Infants lack various digestive enzymes in their bodies and also lack probiotics in their intestines, so they are prone to digestive and respiratory system diseases. Montmorillonite powder can be used to repair and protect the gastrointestinal mucosa, while probiotics can help rebalance the gut flora and aid in digestion. During periods of nausea and vomiting, it is not recommended to take iron supplements, as they may interfere with the digestive process. Wait until the nausea and vomiting subside before taking iron supplements. Additionally, it is important to give the baby plenty of fluids to ensure adequate urine output.
