Chewing too many digestion tablets is not only prone to stomach stones, but also… I was so scared that I quickly collected the baby\’s \”snacks\”!

Mr. Xiaokang, my child is one year and two months old. He likes to eat Jianweixiaoshi tablets. His grandma lets him take them. I don’t know if they are for children. In fact, the child\’s appetite is very good. His grandma gave him food because she was afraid that the child would accumulate food. I would like to ask if there are any side effects of taking too much Xiaoshi tablets? Because I heard from his grandma that the child sometimes has diarrhea for no reason. I wonder if it is caused by taking too many digestion tablets. If you eat too much and your stomach is bloated, chew it after a meal~ If you eat too much and your stomach is bloated, chew it after a meal~ I believe everyone is familiar with this advertising slogan, and digestive tablets have unknowingly become a must-have for home travel. Prepare good medicine, take some preventive medicine when nothing happens, take something to strengthen your stomach when something really happens… But is it really good to rely so much on digestion tablets? Let’s first take a look at what Xiaoshi tablets are made of: Xiaoshi tablets on the market are mainly composed of Radix Pseudostellariae, tangerine peel, yam, malt (fried), and hawthorn. Among them: tangerine peel: has the effect of nourishing the spleen and strengthening the stomach; hawthorn and malt: mainly treat indigestion, indifference, abdominal distension and stuffiness, etc.; Radix Pseudostellariae and yam: can strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, mainly treat weak spleen and stomach, loss of appetite, fatigue, etc. However, the most important ingredient is hawthorn, because hawthorn is sour and can increase gastric acid secretion (promoting gastrointestinal motility to promote digestion), enhance pepsin activity (solve the problem of loss of appetite), and thus achieve the purpose of aiding digestion. Therefore, it can be seen that Jianweixiaoshi Tablets are indeed effective in treating various symptoms such as not wanting to eat, abdominal distension, and gastric acidosis. However, this does not mean that you can eat Xiaoshi tablets like snacks. After all, everything has a degree, and more of everything is not always better. Eating too many digestion tablets will not only cause digestion but will hurt your stomach! Generally speaking, the normal dosage of Xiaoshi tablets is: 3 tablets at a time for children, 3 times a day (it is best for babies to take children\’s size); 4 to 6 tablets at a time for adults, 3 times a day. However, children can take it for up to 2 days, and adults can take it for up to 7 days. If there is no effect after taking it for 2 or 3 days, you need to seek medical treatment in time instead of taking Xiaoshi tablets all the time. As mentioned before, Xiaoshi tablets can increase gastric acid secretion and promote intestinal peristalsis, thereby aiding digestion. However, blindly taking large amounts of Xiaoshi tablets will also increase the acidity in the stomach, making it easy for babies to develop internal heat and develop symptoms such as gastric acidity, stomach heartburn, flatulence, and loss of appetite. Moreover, hawthorn contains high pectin and tannic acid content. When in contact with gastric acid, it will condense into water-insoluble precipitates, which can easily form stomach stones. Therefore, if your baby occasionally suffers from indigestion, you can take some digestive tablets under the guidance of a doctor to improve it. If the symptoms do not improve, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time and receive symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If your baby often has indigestion, it is best to go to the hospital for relevant examinations before determining whether you need to take Xiaoshi tablets. It is not appropriate to take Xiaoshi tablets regularly just to prevent your baby from indigestion. The human body is like a machine with precise division of labor. The intestines and stomach are responsible for processing the food eaten. If you rely on drugs to help digestion for a long time, the intestines and stomach will inevitably become \”lazy\”. Over time, the baby\’s already weak gastrointestinal function will become even weaker. This is not conducive to the development of the child. So don’t take digestive tablets asLet your baby eat snacks if it\’s okay. Even if you have indigestion, you can\’t let your baby eat them for several days in a row!
