A member asked:
My 18 month old daughter was experiencing stomach pain from augmentum. how long after stopping the medicine before her pain is eased?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be a while: When antibiotics cause GI upset, it's usually at least in part due to the normal gut bacteria being out of whack. Even when you stop the medicine, it can take weeks to get back to baseline. Can help it with probiotics (now available both in foods like yogurts of as powders you can add to foods/drink). Don't overload her eating - small, more frequent meals better tolerated.
