Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea With Vomiting And Fever
My husband has terrible diarrhea, some vomiting earlier in the day and low fever. How long should we wait to seek medical attention. I can t remember when he has been this sick. I have given him several doses of Emetrol over the past 2 1/2 hours. Thanks.
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain the symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting with low grade fever can be most commonly due to Viral Gastroenteritis also known as Stomach flu.. Other causes can be parasitic infection, bacterial infection, food intolerance etc.. I would suggest you to consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and invesigations like blood tests and stool culture can help in confirmation of the cause.. You can be advised fluid replacement therapy like drinking oral rehydration solution to prevent dehydration and recover electrolyte imbalance caused due to diarrhea.. You can also be advised to take a light diet.. You should maintain proper hygiene and always wash your hands before eating.. Take ample of fluids. Take ample of rest.. He can be advised Acetaminophen to reduce fever and Ondensarton for vomiting.. In case of bacterial infection antibiotics can be advised while anti parasitic drugs for parasitic infestation..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
