Question
A two-and-a-half-month-old baby has diarrhea with milk curd in the stool. Can bifidobacteria and probiotics be taken at the same time? What dosage should a newborn take?
Answer
Based on the symptoms you described, the baby’s vomiting and abdominal distension may be due to dyspepsia. Bifidobacteria and probiotics can be taken together, with one tablet per day, divided into three doses. Additionally, you can give the baby aJianpi San to aid digestion and stop diarrhea. This can be used for dyspepsia, difficulty eating, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Please note to rest, drink plenty of water, maintain a light diet, and avoid getting a cold in the abdomen.
