Baby takes medicine and has green stool

For some babies, after taking medicine, some side effects may be reflected in the baby's stool, because most of the side effects of medicine are relatively large, and the residual toxins will cause certain harm in the body of young children. Therefore, when the baby is sick, you should try your best to prevent the baby from taking medicine. So why do babies have green stools after taking medicine?

Possible reasons why your baby's stool is green:

1. Babies may spit up milk or have green stools when they catch a cold or have indigestion. If you cannot determine which situation is causing it, you need to see a doctor to check the stool. If there is an infection, active treatment is required. If the test results are normal, the child may have indigestion or a cold abdomen.

2. When the child is not full, the child's gastrointestinal movement is too fast due to hunger, and the stool becomes green and watery.

3. If you think your baby eats a lot, it is because of indigestion. Give her Mommy Love.

4. In addition, for the health of the baby, it is necessary to take in enough iron. If the baby who eats milk powder containing iron cannot fully absorb it,

If the iron in milk powder is absorbed, the stool will be yellow-green, the white particles in the stool will be larger and more likely to have a foul odor.

5. Some babies often excrete a small amount of green vegetable puree in their stool when they first add vegetable puree. Some parents often think it is indigestion and stop adding vegetable puree. In fact, this phenomenon is common when healthy babies change their food.

If it is a newborn baby, dark green stool is normal. For older children, green stool itself is not a problem. It may be related to factors such as incomplete pigmentation of the stool in the intestine and incomplete digestion of the ingested iron. It is not pathological. If the frequency and characteristics of the child's stool are generally normal, there is no need to worry. If you are worried, you can consider adding probiotics.
