Question
My 1.5-year-old baby started having diarrhea and dry vomiting once yesterday afternoon. After eating dinner, she vomited three times and had diarrhea three times. She began to have a fever of 38.2 degrees at midnight, and I have already given her fever-reducing medicine. Is this a symptom of gastroenteritis? Can I give her Cefradine Granules now?
Answer
Based on your description, your baby may be suffering from gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by a viral infection. It is recommended that you continue to monitor your baby’s condition, ensure they drink plenty of water, use physical methods for cooling, and temporarily do not administer any medication. If the symptoms do not improve, please take her to the hospital as soon as possible for a more accurate diagnosis and treatment.
