#askthedoctor baby having loose motions from last 2 weeks . in stool test, e coli bacteria is found. is this normal? is this found easily in any stool ? or do I need to give her any antibiotics like walamycin ?

Question

Accepted Answer

Walamycin antibiotic is not preferred in oral dosage for children. it is only given for very severe infections and that too under controlled environment. as per my opinion you should not give this medicine and better to stick to To simple cefixime
you can always take a second opinion with another doctor in the area who will also examine the child and give you second opinion

it is important to confirm whether it is a simple digestion problem causing loose motion or it is infection. also was there any history that the child was consuming outside milk for the child was only on breastfeeding. it is advisable to remain in contact with your local doctor for further course of action because many other history evaluations will be required.
