Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
This is an alarming sign of dehydration and is highly recommended to take your child directly to pediatric emergency ward in a hospital. Don't go to the doctor who prescribed all that. Its high time for intravenous medications and fluids to the baby. Baby is seriously ill and illness so long may lead to life threatening complications.
Leave all medications and obligations you have at home. Go strainght to the emergency Room.
Hope I answered all of your health concerns . If you have further questions in future, feel free to contact me anytime. In the start of your question write my name, and I will get back to you in no time. If satisfied, please click you found it helpful.
