Question
A 6-and-a-half-month-old baby has had diarrhea for several days, with slightly loose stools. The hospital examination two days ago showed white blood cells, and the baby has not improved after taking Golden Bifidus. Today, the baby is not eating much milk and the stools are even looser, with brown floating particles. The doctor has prescribed Cefpodoxime Proxetil and Aluminum Phosphate Gel.
Answer
There are many causes of diarrhea in babies. If diagnosed with a mild inflammation, Cefpodoxime Proxetil can be used for treatment, but it should be used with caution to avoid over-reliance on antibiotics. At the same time, medication for reducing pressure and good hygiene habits should be combined, and attention should be paid to the baby’s dietary adjustments to avoid irritating and cold foods.
