How much probiotics should be taken at one time?

Patient's question:

How much probiotics should be taken at one time? Eating too much makes parents worry, fearing that the child's condition will worsen. Regarding the question I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.

Doctor's answer:

Considering the delicate internal organs of infants and young children, or due to dietary issues, exposure to cold, or poor digestion and absorption, probiotics can be taken (one-third to one-half a pack each time, twice a day) to regulate intestinal flora. They should be taken with warm water or milk after meals. Pay attention to hygiene, keep the nipple clean, and ensure hand hygiene after changing the baby's diapers. Since the baby's stool is influenced by the mother's milk, the mother should also pay attention to a balanced diet, eat a nutritious diet, avoid fried and junk foods, maintain regular eating habits, and drink less cold beverages.
