Question

The baby has been suffering from persistent diarrhea for 6 days at 2 months old. After taking probiotics, there was no improvement. Can we use belly button patches and montmorillonite powder? The hospital tested fresh feces within 2 hours, showing the stool changed from loose to egg yolk-like, with occasional substances resembling egg whites.

Answer

When the baby had diarrhea, the hospital prescribed medication, which later turned into enteritis, causing the child much distress. Eventually, berberine was used for treatment and recovery, with half a tablet taken three times a day. Berberine was wrapped in paper and ground into powder, half the amount mixed with a little water using a small spoon given to the child, followed by some plain water to make it less bitter. At the same time, many intestinal probiotics were used, with a 30-minute interval between the two medications.
