Hi,

Cyclopam Drops must not be used in infants less than six months old. Side effects include:

-abdominal bloating.
-dry eyes and mouth.
-weakness.

Probiotics are sometimes used to treat foul-smelling stools. They are non-disease causing bacteria and can be found in a health foods store.

One type of bacteria found in probiotics is Lactobacillus. Causes of blisters include:

-viruses
-a particular virus called Herpes
-allergy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
