Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea In An Infant
Question: My 1 year 3 month old baby consuned HH Fuidic cream.. had a loose stool too..What shoul I Do?
Brief Answer:
Visit the ER at the earliest.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query carefully and understand your concerns.
There is no specific antidote for Fucidic cream (mupirocin). Although I do not expect any other problems other than diarrhea you should definitely take the child to a hospital for observation so that suitable interventions can be taken in case anything goes wrong. Management is symptomatic. You need to continue breastfeeding for the time being.
Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
