Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Persistent Diarrhea And Vomiting
I ve had diarrhea for 4 days and was vomiting Tuesday. No fever. Wednesday took generic Imodium AD 1 pill after every loose movement not to exceed 4 in 24 hours. Haven t had any since Wednesday. Drinkinging lots of water, eating bananas crackers yogurt. Nothing staying in.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of persistent diarrhea and vomiting which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis and electrolyte imbalance in body.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start treatment with combination of fluoroquinolones and ornidazole. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined and start treatment after prescription. You should get intravenous fluid administration as well. You should take oral rehydrating solution as well. You should take Ibuprofen along with proton pump inhibitors as well. Avoid hot, sharp and spicy food. You should take banana on daily basis and light food. Drink plenty of fluids to rehydrate body fluids.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
