Is Giving Liv.52 Syrup Advisable For A Positive CMV IgM Test Result?

Hi Dr. My son has hepatosplenomegaly and ascites.he develop it after 4 week of birth.we had hida scan and it is highly suggestive of biliary atresia but pediatric surgeon say it is not biliary atresia as gall bladder is healthy and stool color is normal. Later he was diagnosed with cmv igm positive.he is currently on vanganciclovir but it is not that effective as bilirubin is increasing slightly. Please advice giving 1ml of liv52 syrup will be helpful in his case and is it safe to give syrup to 3 month old boy as drops not available.

Hi...I advise you to give it after the age of six months as the safety in this age group is not established.
