Question
How to Reduce Newborn Jaundice?
Answer
Newborn jaundice occurs due to an elevated bilirubin concentration in the blood, leading to visible jaundice on the skin and mucous membranes. Most newborns may experience varying degrees of jaundice, known as physiological jaundice, which is related to the unique bilirubin metabolism of newborns. Pathological jaundice has higher indices and appears earlier. It is recommended to consult a hospital for examination, and according to medical advice, the child can be administered Yinzhi Huang granules, one gram per dose, three times a day, dissolved in boiling water. These granules have the effects of reducing jaundice, lowering alanine aminotransferase levels, clearing heat and detoxifying, and are particularly effective in promoting diuresis and reducing jaundice.
