Question
Will stopping yellow medicine affect the child if jaundice does not subside after discontinuation? Because the child often has severe diarrhea after drinking yellow medicine, the medication is taken intermittently, and the jaundice has not completely subsided; it’s now been two months and there’s still 32. Is there any impact?
Answer
It is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed check of the jaundice levels. If the baby’s jaundice levels are not high, the body’s own immunity will gradually improve with breastfeeding and physical growth and development, so medication can be stopped. You can give the baby regular sunbathing every day, which can help alleviate the baby’s jaundice. Normally, give your child plenty of sunlight and water; by about a hundred days old, it should be replaced. If it exceeds normal levels, hospital blue light therapy should be used to reduce the jaundice.
