My baby has pale stools?

Hello, Madam, would it be possible to know which antibiotic your child received?

Does he have any other symptoms such as fever, nausea, deterioration of his general condition or other?

Is he eating and drinking?

Thanks for the feedback!

Are you sure it's xylocaine? It is not an antibiotic but a local anesthetic (like what dentists use to 'freeze' the mouth)

Thanks for the confirmation!

I went to the product monograph, it does not seem that the product is associated with a change in stool color, especially so long after taking it.

As it is written, if his general condition is good, if he manages to eat, if he wets and soils his diaper (even if less than usual), a change in the appearance of the stools does not necessarily indicate a problem. Just keep an eye on his general condition, it usually goes away on its own.

I would be happy to help you, and if there is anything you need, please don't hesitate to contact me!
