Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. What medicine can be given to stop diarrhea in children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is the first thing to consider: testing the stool for a clear diagnosis of whether it is infant indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or functional bowel disorder caused by a cold. If it is indigestion, it is recommended to take Smecta and Mimi Ai orally, and then apply Dinggui Er Qipai to the navel for treatment. Temporarily stop adding new foods, or reduce the amount of supplementary foods and indigestible foods. Gradually reintroduce foods once improvement is seen. If necessary, seek treatment in the pediatric department of the hospital for intravenous therapy. Extend the breastfeeding interval. Offer more fluids. If it is intestinal inflammation, it is recommended to choose ampicillin for intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment. To prevent dehydration and fever, you can choose to take oral ibuprofen suspension for fever reduction. Hope this is helpful to you. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery.
