Question
An 8-month-old baby has recovered from diarrhea, took medication only once yesterday, and plans to receive the flu vaccine today. Is it suitable? What were the past treatment and outcomes? The condition improved a few days ago, but there was a slight diarrhea yesterday. The assistance sought is: Can the vaccine be administered today?
Answer
For the situation you described, it is recommended to use ranitidine to treat excessive stomach acid, reducing the symptoms of gastritis. It is suggested that you maintain dietary adjustments in your daily life, avoiding extremely cold foods such as cold dishes, Coca-Cola, Sprite, and carbonated drinks, as well as spicy foods like raw scallions, ginger, garlic, chives, green onions, chili peppers, and other difficult-to-digest foods such as fried foods, sticky foods, and overly greasy foods.
