Question
How should medication be used for newborns with digestive disorders?
Answer
Digestive disorders in newborns may be caused by reasons such as indigestion, viral infections, lactose intolerance, or bacterial infections. It is recommended to treat with oral intestinal probiotics and Simethicone, and to ensure adequate fluid intake to prevent dehydration. If oral rehydration therapy is ineffective, immediate medical attention and intravenous fluid treatment should be sought. Parents should take their children to the doctor immediately, avoid self-administration of over-the-counter medications, and provide sufficient care and attention to help them recover from the illness promptly.
