What should children with pediatric diarrhea eat?

Patient's question:

A 1.5-year-old child has chronic diarrhea and vomits everything. They have seen a doctor and received intravenous drips, but it hasn't been effective. Is there any way to stop the diarrhea?

Doctor's answer:

Detected infant diarrhea, it is recommended to check and test whether it is indigestion or intestinal inflammation. Also, pay attention to whether it is caused by a cold leading to intestinal dysfunction. If it is indigestion, oral medications such as Shanmai Jianpi Koufuye (Mountain Millet Strengthening Spleen Oral Liquid) and Montmorillonite Powder should be recommended. For severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment, extend the interval between feedings to allow the digestive system to rest, and increase fluid intake. If supplementary foods have been introduced, they should be temporarily suspended or reduced, and gradually reintroduced once symptoms improve. In particular, avoid foods that are difficult to digest. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a professional hospital.
