Question
Can premature infants take simeticon for acute enterocolitis?
Answer
Doctors advise that if the child is in good spirits and has a normal body temperature, diarrhea caused by acute enterocolitis can be treated with oral simeticon. In more severe cases, intravenous fluid therapy may be required. During this period, it is important to drink plenty of water, avoid greasy and cold foods, and appropriately increase calcium supplements.
