Can an 11-month-old baby take fever-reducing medication on an empty stomach?
Disease description:
The baby is one month old. Can he take fever-reducing medicine on an empty stomach?
It is not recommended to give fever-reducing medication to an 11-month-old baby on an empty stomach, as such medication can affect the baby's digestive system and easily cause symptoms of indigestion. Moreover, since the baby's gastrointestinal function has not yet fully matured, taking fever-reducing drugs may lead to diarrhea. Giving these medications on an empty stomach can also impair the baby's nutrient absorption, negatively affecting growth and development, and weaken the baby's immune system, thereby compromising overall health.
