What should I do if the child has diarrhea and vomiting?

Despite the protests of the child, because children often do not want to drink in case of illness, than aggravate the situation, hydration (sedimentation) must begin in the first day of the disease.
In mild cases of discomfort to a child of any age, in addition to the drinking regime, it will be sufficient to introduce adsorbents such as activated carbon, Enterosgel or Smecta. It will work if the kid is cheerful and active. But that's what to give the child in case of vomiting and diarrhea, if he has a fever, the doctor should prescribe only the doctor who will assess the severity of the condition and may even insist on hospitalization, which should not be abandoned.
Drug therapy
If a child of any age has nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, then the treatment is most likely without antibiotics will not do, especially if the temperature is connected.
In addition to the drug, fighting with the causative agent of the disease, the child is prescribed Ftalazol, Nifuroxazide, capsules of bifidobacteria. Complex treatment quickly leads to a positive result, if it is started on time.
