Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi

You may continue with regular breast feeds to maintain hydration. Use formula feeds only in case the feeds are inadequate. Most babies improve without any drugs. Check with your neonatologist or pediatrician if baby doesn't feed, persistently vomits, has fever or seems lethargic.

Take care
