Question

The newborn is 17 days old and has a high bilirubin index. They have been taking Barberry Seed Granules and are also taking a triple probiotic enteric-coated capsule. However, they are experiencing diarrhea and watery stools, along with rumbling sounds in the stomach. What should be done?

Answer

Taking Barberry Seed Granules may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, leading to diarrhea and vomiting. It is important to keep the abdomen warm, avoid catching a cold, and observe the situation for a day. If the symptoms do not improve, it is recommended to discontinue the Barberry Seed Granules and continue to monitor. If discomfort persists, consider checking the stool routine.
