Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

Loperamide is not a drug that I would give to my infants.
It could cause more harm.

Urine trace protein is normal. Nothing to worry about that.
Yes you can give him enterogermina. No harm with that.


Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
