Patient's question:
A 3.5-year-old baby. In winter, playing outside in the water led to high fever, urine tests revealed bacteria and viruses, and transmission occurred. Took Cefixime for three days and Ribavirin. During the period with a temperature of 37.5°C, there was coughing and runny nose. Took Fenghan Ganmao Granules and Xiao'er Qingfei Syrup. Now the temperature is 37.3-37.5°C. Approximately three days after taking Cefixime and Ribavirin, should you still focus on taking them?Doctor's answer:
First, it is important to understand that complete recovery from the illness requires a process and the correct use of medication. After the body temperature returns to normal, it should be maintained for two more days to ensure the condition heals completely. First and foremost, it is essential to ensure the baby drinks plenty of water, pay attention to isolation, and maintain dietary hygiene. It is best not to go to crowded places, as the baby's cold has not fully recovered, and they may be reinfected. When necessary, oral administration of calcium gluconate oral liquid can be given to appropriately strengthen the baby's clothing.
