Daily Dose Ep47: Viral Gastro In Sydney
Manage episode 272811117 series 1491873
Hey Sydneysiders its Smiling Pharmacist here to warn everyone to keep up their hand sanitizers and hygiene cos there's viral gastro making the rounds
Symptoms are diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, low appetite.
Spread easily by coughing, sneezing, sharing utensils. So keep up the mask wearing!
Treatment involves maintaining hydration with oral rehydration salts e.g. Hydralyte/Gastrolyte/Pedialyte. But my all time favourite product is the probiotic combination by MedLab called ORSbiotic. It combines Saccharomyces boulardii beneficial yeast to flush out the bad guys
Finally I forgot to mention but when you use anti-diarrhoeals e.g. Gastro-Stop/Imodium, you actually do your body a disservice as it stops the outflow of waste, holding it in (increasing chance for cramps) and delaying recovery. Of course there's a time and place for it e.g. commuting to work, before bed, travelling overseas (is there actually anyone at the moment with COVID?) Stay Safe! #heroeswearmasks
