Suggest Treatment For Intermittent Abdominal Pain In A Child
Hi my 2 and a half year old son has had intermittently high temperature for 3 days with intermittent abdominal pain. The pain appears to be quite severe when it comes. The pain has only become severe in last 12 hours. But temp has been fine in that time. When pain free he seems completely fine

Hi dear,
with such presentation in my clinic, I will at the first exclude severe conditions:
-UTI by urine test;
- intestinal infection by stool analysis;
-parasites by stool for cyst and ova;
-mononucleosis by blood test and etc
I suggest
Cefixime 4 mg/kg/dose twice a day for 5 days,
Vizylac 1 capsule daily for normal intestinal flora for 1 month
Charcoal 1 tablet/10kg for absorption gases and toxins
Hope it helps
