Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, your child is most probably suffering from acute gastroenteritis due to food poisoning. Since there is a history of getting from outside after which the child has developed vomiting and loose stools chances of food poisoning are quite high. the main thing that we have to take care is of dehydration, give more Fluids to child. give ORS solution to child so that hydration can be maintained. For vomiting you can give antiemetic syrup like syrup ondem 5 ml 3 times a day for one day. Prebiotic like enterogermina ampule should be given once a day for 3 days to increase gut immunity. if vomiting persist, loose stools persist, fever occurs, decreased activity occur then antibiotic needs to be given. An examination by doctor should be done so that we may not miss any important finding. Take care.
