When a baby experiences diarrhea caused by enteritis, treatment can consider several aspects of medication intervention: first, using antidiarrheal drugs, such as montmorillonite powder or quick-acting antidiarrheal granules, can effectively alleviate diarrhea symptoms, but attention should be paid to avoiding long-term use to prevent constipation. Secondly, if enteritis is caused by bacterial infection, it can be treated with drugs that regulate intestinal flora. Common choices include probiotic preparations such as bifidobacterium triple live capsules, bacillus subtilis dual live granules, as well as clostridium butyricum live capsules, lactobacillus tablets, which help restore intestinal microbial balance and relieve diarrhea. For bacterial enteritis, doctors may prescribe cephalosporin dispersible tablets, amoxicillin clavulanate potassium tablets and other antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment, while antibiotics are not suitable for viral infections.
In some severe cases, such as severe vomiting accompanying diarrhea, intravenous infusion of sodium chloride injection, compound electrolyte injection, etc., may be needed for fluid replacement to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
In addition to medication treatment, home care is also crucial. Ensure the baby’s diet is light and easily digestible, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid worsening the condition due to unclean conditions. Having reasonable dietary habits, avoiding overeating, are equally important for reducing gastrointestinal burden and promoting recovery.
