Also kindly advise fooding pattern during these days as she is unwilling to eat anything.
Hi... the gold standard for diagnosing is blood culture and the bug should be growing in the culture. I hope this is how the diagnosis was confirmed in your kids case.1. Metal contains Metonymic acid which is a NSAID. It carries the risk of gastritis and renal problems in the long run. Please do not use Metal.2. Rather than Ofloxacin I would have preferred Definite as oral treatment option of antibiotic.3. Regarding feeding, no specific dietary restrictions, but better to avoid spicy food. Hope my answer was helpful for you.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
