Question
My daughter is four years old. After eating porridge and eggs in the morning before going to school, she vomited twice around noon. After taking medication at home, she still vomited, even when drinking water. Around 5 pm, she received an injection, but when she came back home, she still vomited when drinking water and rice porridge. What could be the cause of this? How was the previous treatment and what was the outcome? What should I do now?
Answer
Based on the information you provided, I suspect your child may have encountered a common autumnal nausea and vomiting. After vomiting, your child may start to have diarrhea. It is recommended that you temporarily do not let your child eat and give her oral Smecta and Mamima Ai, and if necessary, add ondansetron. Please closely monitor your child’s condition to prevent electrolyte imbalance.
