Diet & Lifestyle Advise
It would be best to give probiotics after taking the full course of Hifen 100 mg Syrup to restore some healthy bacteria in the intestine that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut and kimchi can help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
The BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) can help with diarrhoea from antibiotics.
Give plenty of water to the child. Staying hydrated is important, especially when you’re child sick.
Eating a broad range of plant-based foods such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, pulses, and whole grains helps to build a healthy gut microbiome.
Avoid feeding too many calcium-enriched foods and drinks because they may interfere with the functioning of Hifen 100 mg Syrup.
