Question
My baby is over 6 months old and has recently started having diarrhea. How should I handle it?
Answer
Doctors suggest that diarrhea in babies may be caused by indigestion, enteritis, or catching a cold. First, it is important to determine the cause of the illness. If the diarrhea is mild and the baby is in good spirits, you can consider giving probiotics like Mommy Love or Bifidobacterium live bacteria preparations, or taking intestinal health supplements, and you may also take antibiotics such as cephalosporin drugs. If the condition is severe and medication is ineffective, immediate intravenous fluid therapy is required.
