Can children take metoclopramide to treat gastritis?

Because of colds, fevers, viral infections, and seasonal changes, many children often experience abdominal pain. There are many reasons for abdominal pain, such as frequent eating of bad food, roundworms in the stomach, liver disease, enteritis and gastritis. Many adults will take metoclopramide to relieve and treat gastritis. We all know that all medicines are toxic. Especially when giving medicines to children, babies should not take metoclopramide indiscriminately, and adults should not take medicine indiscriminately. If stomach pain and abdominal pain occur, we must first find the cause of the disease. It can be considered that it is caused by adverse factors. In addition to using some antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment, we must also take protective measures through diet to prevent the disease from worsening.

How should babies with chronic gastritis be treated with diet?

Chronic gastritis is a major reason why children complain of stomach pain. Younger children often cannot tell the difference between stomach pain and abdominal pain. You should know that in recent years, the incidence of gastritis and ulcers in children has been increasing year by year. In addition to genetics, bad eating habits such as eating indigestible food, drinking cold drinks on an empty stomach, and eating snacks all day long may cause children to suffer from gastritis. In addition, bad habits such as not brushing teeth, not washing hands before and after meals, and not cutting nails can easily cause food to be contaminated by bacteria and lead to gastritis. In addition, some antibiotics, antipyretics, etc. can also irritate children's stomachs and induce gastritis.

Therefore, experts remind parents that if their children complain of stomachache, do not rush to give them medicine. It is best to take the children to the hospital to determine the cause and then prescribe the right medicine. In addition, experts also remind that in order to reduce stomachaches in children, the first thing to do is to teach children to wash their hands before eating. The cooked food you give your children must be from regular manufacturers; do not give your children watermelons and other fruits that have been cut and placed in the refrigerator, and do not give your children overnight food. In addition, for infants and young children, parents should not feed them mouth-to-mouth.
