Question

What medication should be used to treat eye infections or other eye issues in newborns?

Answer

Hello, if a newborn’s eyes require anti-inflammatory treatment, you can use erythromycin ointment. Please note to maintain hygiene and avoid letting the baby rub their eyes. Additionally, if you notice the baby’s hair growth is slow, consider supplementing with zinc appropriately and continue to provide fish oil supplements. Ensure a varied diet and continue to observe the baby’s condition.
