Patient's question:
My baby is 16 months old. Today, he suddenly vomited after eating anything, and had mild diarrhea in the morning. I took him to the hospital, where they did a small blood test and ultrasound and diagnosed acute gastroenteritis caused by a cold. He received one bottle of potassium and sodium glucose solution. When we came home in the evening, he vomited even more severely. In just a few minutes, he vomited four times. He hasn't eaten anything all day, and everything he vomited was acidic. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Suggest symptomatic treatment. For diarrhea, Montmorillonite powder can be taken. As for vomiting four times, it is recommended to receive intravenous treatment because vomiting four times may lead to electrolyte imbalance. Some sodium bicarbonate should be infused, along with famotidine injection and omeprazole injection. Regarding antibiotics: Cefoselast sodium and levofloxacin hydrochloride injection.
