Question
My child received an intravenous drip yesterday and had diarrhea four to five times in the evening. Past treatment history and effects: Unknown. Help needed: Please tell me what medication my child should take and what they should avoid. That would be sufficient.
Answer
The baby may be suffering from digestive discomfort, possibly nausea and vomiting, due to poor digestion. It is recommended to give the baby some supplements that help with digestion and nourishment, such as Dianxin Yanshi Pills for Children, Montmorillonite Powder, and probiotics. The child should also drink more plain water. For a simple remedy, you can prepare ginger and jujube tea by placing jujubes and 3 grams of dried ginger in a porcelain cup, adding 150 milliliters of boiling water, and steeping for 10 minutes with the cover on. Consume as desired. For a more solidifying effect on the intestines, you can make a glutinous rice and yam porridge by cooking glutinous rice (30 grams, lightly toasted) and yam (15 grams). Additionally, consider using traditional Chinese medicine foot baths for treating infant diarrhea.
