Patient's question:
I would like to inquire about my baby who visited the children's hospital yesterday. The baby is five months old and had a fever with some watery diarrhea and curdled milk. Now the fever has subsided, and the doctor prescribed Cefixime Granules, Lactic Acid Bacteria Granules, Shu Biao Ling Granules, Transfer Factor, and Children's Cold and Fever Reducing Syrup. The fever is gone now, so can the baby stop taking some of the medications? I also want to ask if Shu Biao Ling Granules can cause some diarrhea?Previous Treatment and Effect: Took Meilin for the fever.
Help Needed: Can the medication be reduced? Should the baby still take Shu Biao Ling Granules with some watery diarrhea?
Doctor's answer:
When children again show symptoms of fever and cough, parents should promptly measure their temperature. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling measures can be taken. This involves using warm water to sequentially rinse the armpits, neck, chest, and other affected areas of the child, placing an ice pack on the head, and it is recommended to effectively help reduce their temperature. If the condition is severe or high fever requires medication, medical advice should be followed to prevent harm to the child caused by improper medication use.
