What medication can be given to a nine-month-old baby with diarrhea?

There are many possible causes of diarrhea in infants, so the medications used vary accordingly. 1. Diarrhea caused by indigestion: Probiotics such as Bacillus subtilis bivalent live tablets can be used under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, pay attention to diet—avoid raw, cold, and greasy foods. 2. Diarrhea due to gastrointestinal infection: A routine stool test at the hospital is necessary. If an infection is confirmed, anti-infective medications and drugs such as smectite powder may be used under medical supervision. 3. Diarrhea caused by lactose intolerance or allergies: Targeted treatment is required. Lactase supplements can be taken orally under a doctor’s advice, and foods containing proteins or other allergens should be avoided to prevent diarrhea.
