Question
A three-year-old child experienced seizures one hour after receiving an azithromycin injection. What has been the past treatment effect and situation? What kind of observation and assistance is needed?
Answer
After receiving azithromycin, children may experience side effects including gastrointestinal reactions, regional reactions, skin reactions, and other reactions. However, the occurrence of seizures in children after receiving azithromycin may not be related to the drug, and the causes may be diverse. It is recommended to closely monitor the child’s condition. If the situation persists, immediate medical examination is required to rule out the possibility of meningitis.
