Question
What kind of medicine can children take while undergoing intravenous treatment for hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
According to your description, the child has developed blisters on their hands, feet, and inside the mouth, accompanied by mild fever, loss of appetite, and irregular bowel movements. The initial diagnosis suggests a mild case. It is recommended to start anti-infection treatment and symptomatic therapy promptly. Antiviral medications such as ribavirin and hydrocortisone can be used. For blisters or ulcers inside the mouth, medications like Bingpeng powder and Xilei powder can be applied to relieve symptoms. For vomiting, anti-diarrheal agents such as Montmorillonite powder can be taken.
