Baby Having Loose Motions With Mucous, With Blood. On Antibiotics, Not Much Improvement. Solution?
my baby is a year old. on 2nd nov he had loose stools with mucuos. we gave him the laolin and pectin combination drug. but the condition didnt improve. on the 9nth nov blood came with his stools. he then was put on a metronidazole antibiotic for 7 days. his course ended yesterday but i dont see much improvement with every feed he passes the stool. today in the morning i gave him banana after 15-20 mins he vomitted. this was the first time he vomitted.
He may be suffering from antibiotic-induced diarrhea. Use enterogermina tubes twice a day for five days. Get it stool examination is done. Please consult your pediatrician if symptoms not improved.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
