A 1.5-year-old child has had diarrhea for 5 days now and is barely any stronger.

Patient's question:

A 1.5-year-old child has had diarrhea for 5 days and now has no strength at all.
Treatment history and effectiveness:
Visited for three days but it hasn’t been effective. Took Montmorillonite but it didn’t work.
Desired help:
What medicine can be taken to help?

Doctor's answer:

The baby is 1.5 years old and has been experiencing nausea and vomiting for 5 days. The Montmorillonite treatment has been ineffective, and the baby's spirits are currently low.
It is recommended that prolonged diarrhea in babies can easily lead to complications such as dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. If the baby has a small amount of urine, dry skin and mucous membranes, timely fluid supplementation is necessary to correct the electrolyte imbalance.
At the same time, a stool routine test should be conducted. If there is inflammation, anti-inflammatory medication should be administered. Montmorillonite oral administration is not effective, so enema can be used. Additionally, Bao Le An or Ma Mi Ai can be used to adjust the intestinal flora.
