Dear Colleagues,
we have one baby with short bowel syndrome after surgery for NEC. He had his gall bladder accidentally removed, unfortunately. He has ileostomy. He developped watery diarrhea. Stool analysis, C/S, Rotavirus, Reducing substances, all are negative. We reviewed literature and found that cholestyramine can be used in such cases, especially after removal of gall bladder.

Do anybody has experience with that?
