What else can I give to someone who is feeling very weak and still has an intermittent fever and diarrhea despite taking Dolo 650 and Lomotil, and eating watery dal rice, oats gruel, and biscuits?
The most important step right now is preventing dehydration, which is causing the severe weakness. Please start Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) dissolved in clean water, and offer coconut water. Continue the watery dal-rice and oats gruel, but avoid biscuits as they can sometimes irritate the gut. You can continue paracetamol (Dolo 650) for the fever, but please consult a doctor before continuing Lomotil. Persistent fever and diarrhea may indicate an infection requiring specific medical evaluation.
