POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. For your 5-year-old daughter's stomach pain, the right medicine depends on the cause. If it’s mild and occasional, you can try home remedies first, but if the pain is severe or persistent, a doctor's consultation is best.
Possible Causes & Medicines:
Gas or Indigestion:
Simethicone drops (e.g., Colic Aid, Gastica) – Helps relieve gas. Digeplex or Bonnisan syrup – Aids digestion.
Mild Stomach Upset (Overeating/Spicy Food):
ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution) – If she has loose motions. Omeprazole syrup (under a doctor’s guidance) for acidity.
Constipation:
Lactulose syrup (e.g., Duphalac, Cremaffin Junior) – Helps soften stool.
Mild Infection or Stomach Bug:
Zinc syrup (e.g., Zinconia) – Supports gut health. Enterogermina (probiotic) – Helps restore gut balance. Home Remedies to Try First: Give warm water or ajwain water (for gas). Massage her tummy gently in a clockwise direction. Encourage her to use the bathroom, if needed. Avoid heavy, oily, or spicy foods.
If she has vomiting, high fever, severe pain, or diarrhea, see a doctor immediately. Let me know more details about her symptoms so I can guide you better!
