Can oral polio drops be given to a baby who is having watery stools and taking Econorm, and do these drops have any side effects?

Asked by Female, 30 · 8 days ago

Generally, it is best to temporarily postpone the oral polio vaccine drops until the watery stools have resolved. Active diarrhea can cause the vaccine to pass through the digestive system too quickly, making it less effective. While the probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii (Econorm) is safe and does not interfere with the vaccine, waiting ensures your baby gets full protection. Oral polio drops are very safe; mild side effects like a low-grade fever or irritability are rare. Please consult your pediatrician to safely reschedule the vaccine.
