Suggest treatment for loose motions with high temperature
Patient: Hello Doctor, My daughter is having loose motion from morning(8-10 times) today. I have been advised to gove Nutrolin-B and electoral water. In the evening she started with high temperature(99.6F),too much foul-smell stool and she started refusing food..... Can i proceed with suggested medicine as i cannot consult a doctor right now? Thank you veru much ......... Doctor: THANKS FOR YOUR  QUERY.Symptoms related to any diarrheal illness are often associated with any infection to the gastrointestinal tract, such as high grade fever, loose motion and abdominal pain.Nutrolin B and Electoral are right to be given. Electral contains electrolyte solution and you can give the medicines. She should be well hydrated with electrolytes, along with symptomatic treatment like NSAID (acetaminophen) for fever, anti secretary drug like racecodotril to reduce the frequency of motion and also to prevent dehydration will help her. HOPE THAT HELPS.
