Treatment for rotavirus group A

Many parents feel nervous about rotavirus, and are particularly worried that their children will contract the disease. Under normal circumstances, newborns are more likely to contract rotavirus, but there are no symptoms of rotavirus at this time. When the baby is between 6 months and 2 years old, if the baby contracts rotavirus, the symptoms are more serious, so when parents see symptoms of rotavirus in their baby, they should take the baby to the hospital for treatment in time.

Method 1

There is currently no specific drug for treating rotavirus diarrhea. Generally, treatment is symptomatic to correct the child's dehydration and acidosis. For children with mild diarrhea symptoms, oral rehydration can be used to correct them. The commonly used one is the oral rehydration salt recommended by the World Health Organization. The formula is 3.5 grams of sodium chloride, 2.5 grams of sodium bicarbonate, 1.5 grams of potassium hydride, 20 grams of glucose and 1000 milliliters of water. Children can drink it as water. Children with more severe symptoms can be treated with intravenous infusion to correct dehydration and acidosis, while taking dipyridamole orally. In recent years, interferon (IFN) has also been used to treat rotavirus infection. This drug can inhibit the reproduction of the virus in the human body, thereby alleviating symptoms and shortening the course of the disease.

Method 2

If a newborn baby suffers from autumn diarrhea, the baby should continue to be breastfed. About 90% of breast milk contains anti-rotavirus antibodies, which can alleviate symptoms or shorten the course of the disease.

Method 3

There are also many good folk remedies for treating rotavirus diarrhea. Earlier in Southeast Asia, rice soup was used instead of glucose oral solution and achieved good therapeutic effects. In our country, some people have used burnt rice or millet to make rice soup, which can be taken orally instead of rehydration agents, and achieved obvious results.

The specific production method is :

Fry the rice or millet over low heat until it turns brown, then add water and cook into porridge. Filter out the rice grains and feed the child with the rice soup. The roasted rice grains have been partially carbonized, which can absorb toxins and stop diarrhea. You can also add scorched rice soup instead of water to the oral liquid recommended by the World Health Organization for children to drink. If there is no oral rehydration solution, you can add 3.5 grams of salt, 2 grams of baking soda, and 30 grams of white sugar to every 1000 ml of scorched rice soup and drink it. The starch, vitamins and other minerals in rice soup can supplement children's nutrition and help recover their gastrointestinal function. It is currently the most ideal treatment method.
