Question
How should one handle a six-month-old baby’s diarrhea issue, and what should be done if medication does not improve the condition?
Answer
For a six-month-old baby experiencing diarrhea, it is recommended to adopt a feeding method of small, frequent meals and gradually introduce easily digestible complementary foods. During breastfeeding, the mother should pay attention to a light, warm diet and avoid greasy and irritating foods. At the same time, the baby can be given pediatric oral rehydration salts to prevent dehydration, and medications such as Xinbo Lin and Cefpodoxime can be used for treatment. It is suggested to undergo treatment under a doctor’s guidance to ensure the baby’s health and safety.
