Question
How to treat fever and diarrhea in babies? Should I go to the hospital?
Answer
Firstly, it is important to adjust the baby’s diet to avoid overfeeding, which can increase the burden on the digestive system. Mothers should also avoid giving their children cold foods and overuse of medication. Secondly, digestive aid drugs and antiviral medications can be used to improve digestive symptoms. Sucralfate and gastric acidophilus are recommended, as they are biologically active substances with no toxic side effects and are not affected by antibiotics. Bifidobacterium infantis, Bacillus infantis, and Lactobacillus acidophilus are also viable options. For babies over one month old, Dialysis Granules are effective in treating diarrhea and watery stools.
