Patient's question:
My child has recently been having low-grade fever without knowing why, and has been feeling very uncomfortable. Later, they suddenly started vomiting and couldn't keep any food down—whatever they ate, they vomited it back up. They also had diarrhea, which eventually became watery.What kind of help do I need: What medicine should I give the child for vomiting and diarrhea?
Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned with the child, experiencing vomiting and diarrhea, is likely related to an unreasonable diet and stomach cold, which may have led to gastroenteritis. While the child is being given intravenous fluids, it's recommended to also provide oral medication. You can consider administering Metoclopramide Suspension and Smecta to help stabilize the condition. Additionally, make sure the child drinks plenty of warm water and avoid exposing them to the cold.During the treatment, pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm, encourage them to drink more water, and maintain a light diet with easily digestible foods. Avoid extremely cold, greasy, and spicy foods.
