Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old, 16 weeks pregnant, not in good health. Since 5 PM yesterday, she has been experiencing vomiting and diarrhea. Especially after eating, she vomits everything within 30 to 60 minutes, including drinking water and milk. It has continued until today. What should she do?Doctor's answer:
Drink more water to avoid dehydration. You can use Montmorillonite. Use Coptis chinensis for treatment. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for intravenous treatment to replenish fluids and electrolytes, and for symptomatic treatment. The patient is directly affected by gastroenteritis, and we should actively carry out examinations and treatment, without avoiding medical consultation. If the gastroenteritis does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan. During pregnancy, it is impossible not to take medication when sick, to avoid affecting fetal development.
