Patient's question:
The baby started having diarrhea yesterday, eight times, and seven times today, with yellow watery stools. Yesterday, there was little urination, but today there were about three bowel movements. They went to the hospital, where the baby was dehydrated, had dry mouth, and couldn't cry tears. The IV and glucose infusion couldn't be administered because the veins couldn't be found. The doctor prescribed oral liquid.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you with your question: Based on the description of the situation, the baby is experiencing dehydration due to diarrhea and needs timely fluid replacement treatment. Currently, oral rehydration salts can be used for the baby to replenish fluids. Generally, after using Montmorillonite, it is recommended to wait for about half an hour before giving the baby oral rehydration salts to avoid interference with electrolyte absorption.
