A member asked:
Copious amounts of green eye boogers on eye lashes of 4 month old in the morning & during the day. should i use terramycin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, if: If the antibiotic was prescribed for your baby and not for someone else, then yes you should use it. Your child likely has bacterial conjunctivitis, if the drainage is continuing day and night and needs treatment. But it is essential for babies they have their own medicine prescribed - don't be sharing the family tube or drops. Finally, massage tear ducts many times a day if baby has pink eye.
