Can the child still eat when they vomit after taking medicine for a fever?

Patient's question:

The child is almost 2 years old. Last night, they had a fever of 39 degrees. This morning, they went to the hospital. The doctor prescribed Gong Chen Zai Xin and Cefixime Granules. The child vomited immediately after taking it. Can they still take it?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, it is preliminarily considered that the child's fever is caused by upper respiratory tract infections or other diseases. It is necessary to conduct a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis, and then actively treat it. Daily, appropriate diet, increased fluid intake, enhanced care, and prevention of adverse effects should be maintained. Vitamin C, B complex, and antiviral drugs such as ribavirin and Xiyane should be used for viral infections, while antibiotics like amoxicillin should be used for bacterial infections. For fever, ibuprofen granules can be used in conjunction with physical cooling methods. For nausea, vitamin B6 can be used, and specific treatment should follow the guidance of clinical diagnosis physicians.
