Oral cholestyramine and paregoric therapy for intractable diarrhea following surgical correction of catastrophic disease of the GI tract in neonates.

Abstract:

:Ten surgical neonates with postoperative intractable diarrhea and secondary weight loss were treated with combination cholestyramine and paregoric therapy. Within 3-5 days all infants except two showed significant clinical improvement with a decreasing number of stools, an increase in the consistency of the stool, and gradual weight gain. The exact mechanism of action of cholestyramine is not clear. It may act by binding with bile salts and/or endotoxins in the bowel lumen or decreasing the motility of the bowel. Used in combination with paregoric, a known bowel motility depressant, the doses of each medication can be kept quite low thus avoiding undesirable side effects. Medium chain triglyceride formula is helpful in some of these infants to improve fat absorption further. Medication in all of these infants has been discontinued without any adverse effects.
