When can babies eat Smecta

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Smecta is an anti-diarrheal medication, not a drug for regulating gastrointestinal function. It should only be taken when experiencing more than 8-10 bowel movements per day. Take it on an empty stomach and avoid taking other medications or foods. Depending on your baby's condition, you can take a small amount of Lactobacillus GG or Bifidobacterium breve.
