Question

The baby has a bit of diarrhea. I gave them some Montmorillonite powder and probiotics, and then gave them some milk to drink shortly after. They vomited all over the place before finishing the milk. What’s going on?

Answer

The baby’s condition appears to be symptoms of enteritis, which is common with abdominal pain, nausea, dry vomiting, fever, decreased appetite, crying, increased bowel sounds, intestinal dysfunction, and dehydration. It is recommended to provide light, warm, small and frequent meals that are easy to digest. It is suggested to give children’s physiological saline to prevent or treat enteritis, and to administer amoxicillin granules and Montmorillonite powder for treatment. However, the dry vomiting is not caused by the medication but by the enteritis itself, as enteritis can lead to intestinal dysfunction and symptoms such as nausea and dry vomiting. Do not add probiotics.
