Frequent vomiting and diarrhea can lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and acid-base disturbances. Please seek pediatric medical attention at the local hospital as soon as possible.1. Western medicine treatment
(1) General treatment: Rest as much as possible and take oral glucose-electrolyte solutions to replenish lost fluids. If persistent vomiting or significant dehydration occurs, intravenous fluids (5%-10% glucose saline and other relevant electrolytes) may be necessary. Encourage intake of light liquid or semi-liquid foods to prevent dehydration or treat mild dehydration.
(2) Symptomatic treatment: Antiemetic drugs may be administered when necessary, such as intramuscular chlorpromazine 25-100 mg daily. Antispasmodic drugs, such as belladonna 8 mg, 3 times daily. Anti-diarrheal drugs, such as Smecta 1 packet per dose, 2-3 times daily.
(3) Antibacterial treatment: The efficacy of antibiotics in treating this condition is controversial. For infectious nausea and vomiting, targeted antibiotics may be appropriately used, such as berberine 0.3 g orally, 3 times daily, or gentamicin 80,000 units orally, 3 times daily. However, caution should be taken to avoid antibiotic side effects.
