Question

My daughter is over a year old, and for some reason, she has been vomiting severely and has diarrhea several times a day. The stool is like water, and I’ve given her Montmorillonite powder but it hasn’t worked. Doctor, what are some effective methods for treating children’s diarrhea?

Answer

There is no particularly effective treatment for children’s diarrhea, and treatment is generally symptomatic based on the child’s clinical presentation. If there are complications such as frequent dehydration or electrolyte imbalances, intravenous fluid therapy may be required. Additionally, at home, you can apply cold compresses, massage, or use baby one patch to relieve symptoms. The specific usage and dosage of medication should be followed as instructed by a doctor.
