Suggest Treatment For Fever, Vomiting And Loose Stools In An Infant
My daughter Peyton is 15 months and has had a fever around 102 for two days. She puked once yesterday and twice this morning also has loose stools. She went 6 hours this morning with a dry diaper. I m just worried she might be dehydrated. When I give her water or Gatorade she drinks a little then pushes it away

Explanation: Give Syp paracetamol for fever and feed her with ORS(ORal rehydration solution) in a litre of water continously with spoon for dehydration. If baby is not taking feed/not alert visit doctor immediately.
