How should diarrhea in an 8-month-old baby be treated?

Answer

For an 8-month-old baby with diarrhea, consider using Wen Dai Yang Er Granules, Mamai Yi Granules, and Montmorillonite Powder for treatment. Additionally, the baby’s diet should primarily consist of easily digestible rice porridge, which can be supplemented with appropriate amounts of yam and Astragalus membranaceus to enhance resistance. Also, pay attention to a balanced diet, with adequate intake of fresh vegetables and fruits and fluids, avoiding spicy foods, and ensuring adequate rest and multivitamin supplementation to help the baby recover quickly.
