Dear Lybrate user, metrogyl p plus ointment is a combination medicine used for the prevention and treatment of surgical wound infections in adult patients undergoing surgery. This medicine is not recommended for use in breastfeeding women unless absolutely necessary. All the risks and benefits should be discussed with the doctor before using this medicine. We usually treat this kind of issue by administering homeopathic and other advanced medications. But first, we diagnose the skin condition of the patients. It actually helps us to uproot the exact cause of the disease on a long-term basis. We are inviting you to avail our video consultation service. It will help you to interact with one of our senior doctors quite comfortably.

In some cases,Babies may have lactose intolerance,&RT now as per description,whatever were prescribed are usually common prescription by any Allopathic doctor..just all r nothing but Anti biotics. I don't say suddenly u should stop all.but in Longerway,u have to think of developing immunity levels for Ur baby,as if it occurs often,&if u do continue giving same or a bit higher antibiotics,then baby's immunity levels obviously wil b decreased&may develop alle Gy to not only milk,many other nutrients. so,better to think of going Alternative medicine which u can continue parallel to allopathy even.

It may give a bitter taste to breast milk. So, breast feed baby just before taking the medicines. Take it after food.

My 10 month baby is lactose intolerant as well as soy intolerant and I don't have milk to feed him. So I stopped him. From birth onwards he doesn't drink milk from me. I remove milk from my breast, and I feed him with spootill 7 month. He always cries while eating .now he is 9 kg. He was fat. But now he became very thin. Now I am giving daily idli, moosambi juice, vegetable soup, rice with moong dal khichdi; potato. Egg, cerelac, and in night rice with dal. Cold affects him easily. Is juice items causes cold? He is not drinking milk, only rice can give him health how? My near by aunties r telling don't give juice items, cold will affect. If I give apple grinded it comes in motion as same I gave. If I give moong dal soup, it comes in motion as a paste which I gave. What to do? 0ne month before he was doing potty 5 to 6 times not so tight and not so loose. We went to doctor, he gave medicine but it did not cure. He told to take motion test.in that there was infection. He told to put injection. We went to other doctor he gave metrogyl syrup, now he is doing potty 1 time. Yesterday in his potty I saw very thin red worm's .so I gave him no worm syrup 5 ml. What are the foods I have to give to him.

He has been given treatment according stool report which is sufficient to cover infection. 4 or 5 times stool / day is not abnormal if baby is active and gaining wt. I suggest to change his eating habits since motions have started with weaning time as symptoms started 2 months ago. Continue breast feeding and withdraw some of complementary food and thereafter add another one once he starts digesting.

Hi. I am suffering from loose motions since 2 days. It is completely watery. Since my 2 months baby is on breastfeeding I cannot get admitted full time. I have taken intravenous oflox metrogyl and dns twice. Orally I am on ornof 500 bd, meftal spas and spertgut sachet. The frequency has reduced but it is stillstill watery. Am I on correct medication and how much time will it take to improve. I am slated to fly out of country on Thursday.

Hi Shefali. your medication is correct. Usually it takes around 48 hrs to start showing effect. Hope you feel better soon. Start with ORS as well and take plenty of fluids and a light diet dear.
