Baby has diarrhea after drinking formula milk

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
The reasons for a baby having diarrhea after drinking formula milk are as follows: 1. It may be due to improper water temperature or incorrect concentration during formula preparation. Diarrhea can also occur if the prepared formula is consumed cold or has spoiled. 2. The baby might not tolerate this particular brand of formula. Parents should try switching to another brand and also consider whether lactose intolerance could be the cause; in such cases, lactose-free formula may be appropriate. Babies experiencing diarrhea while on formula can also be treated with oral probiotics.
