Doctor's answer:
Hello! Acute upper respiratory tract infection in children, accompanied by viral gastroenteritis, generally only requires symptomatic and supportive treatment, and most can recover well. Daily diet should be appropriate, nursing care should be enhanced, and adverse effects should be prevented. Digestion of vitamin C, B complex, etc., can be used for nausea and vomiting, such as Montmorillonite powder and Duloxetine. Severe cases should be treated with intravenous fluids. In the early stage, Ribavirin and Ciprofloxacin can be used if appropriate. The above information is for reference.
