Patient's question:
The little baby is now nine months old. Recently, I don't know if it's because of a cold or if the food isn't suitable, but the baby has been having diarrhea. I've tried several medications for nausea and vomiting, but they haven't been very effective. I've also given the baby a few injections, but the child is suffering, and the results haven't been significant. What is the special medication for treating infant diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
If you want your baby's diarrhea to improve quickly, it's recommended to address the symptoms accordingly. You need to find out the cause of nausea and vomiting—is it bacterial infection, rotavirus transmission, or poor nutrition. In that case, you should take a stool sample to the hospital for testing, and then use medication based on the examination results. If the baby's stool contains white blood cells, you can take cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs or gentamicin granules. If it's due to poor nutrition, you should take probiotics orally.
