Patient's question:
The child has been using the restroom all day today, so I asked about his symptoms and found it was diarrhea. We usually treat diarrhea with medication, but he's still very young, and I'm worried some medications might not be suitable for him. So, I'd like to know, what medications are good for infant diarrhea? Urgent, urgent, urgent.Doctor's answer:
Simple diarrhea symptoms can be treated with oral Montmorillonite powder, three times a day, with a dosage of 1/2 to one packet per time, which can significantly alleviate the symptoms. If accompanied by abdominal pain (mostly around the navel), fever, or purulent mucus in the stool, it is more likely caused by intestinal inflammation, and a stool routine test should be conducted. In necessary cases, anti-inflammatory drugs may be taken. It is important to drink more water to avoid dehydration and can appropriately consume some pediatric oral rehydration salts.
