Question
Does taking pediatric diarrhea medication affect baby’s bowel movements?
Answer
Based on your question, pediatric diarrhea medication typically contains herbal ingredients and does not affect baby’s bowel movements. These medications have a tonifying and strengthening effect, which can first relieve inflammation, then warm the gastrointestinal tract, and also have the effects of clearing heat, drying dampness, and firming the intestines to stop diarrhea. They are suitable for cases of damp-heat syndrome or accompanied by abdominal pain. At the same time, it is recommended to let the baby drink more water to expel the body’s inflammation.
