Question

What medication can a 3-year-old baby take for diarrhea?

Answer

The cause of a baby’s diarrhea may be due to catching a cold or poor digestion. For treatment, options like Dinggui Er navel sticker, MamiAi (which contains lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria), or Montmorillonite powder can be considered to help stop the diarrhea. Additionally, it’s crucial to ensure the baby has enough water intake to prevent dehydration. It’s recommended to give the baby warm, easily digestible food and avoid spicy or irritating foods. If the symptoms do not improve after three days of treatment, it’s advisable to take the baby to the hospital for professional medical advice.
