Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi my baby is 1 month old. I gave dexolac to him 2 times and he started vomiting that time and at that time he has cold also. I dont know what is the reason for vomiting. Its because of cold or giving dexolac? Kindly suggest me should i continue dexolac? Am doing breast feeding also but its insufficient
All formula milk takes time to adjust in the body, vomiting is not from the dexolac it is from the cold that your baby has, usually babies tend to throw up when they have upper respiratory tract infections and congestion in the chest, so i would suggest you to just give your baby little quantities of breast milk in short intervals during this phase of cold as breast milk more easily digest able than formula milk however as u said that you're not having sufficient breast milk i suggest you to give dexolac a little more diluted so that it's easy for our little one to digest it.
You can continue using dexolac along with breastfeeding!
Wishing your baby good health and to you happy parenting!
