Patient's question:
My child, who was vomiting and having diarrhea, received IV drips for several days, but it's still not getting better. Just these past few days, he vomits after eating and has a low fever. About the previous treatment and its effects: phosphomycin and virazole were used, in addition to omeprazole.Doctor's answer:
The child's condition could be considered acute gastroenteritis. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a thorough examination, such as a complete blood count and a stool test. Nausea, vomiting, and dry heaving can easily cause electrolyte imbalances. Oral rehydration solution (ORS) should be taken at a ratio of 1:500, unlimited in quantity. Montmorillonite powder should be taken one hour before meals, mixed with water. Bifidobacterium triple viable particles should be used if there is an infection, but antibiotics cannot be used simultaneously with bifidobacterium triple viable particles. A liquid diet and intravenous treatment should be followed to prevent electrolyte imbalances and avoid delaying the condition, which could harm the soul.
