Abstract
Mortality and morbidity in gastroenteritis in children is the result of fluid loss, acid-base and electrolyte imbalance. Hence therapy should be aimed at preventing or correcting this imbalance. The use of intestinal antibiotics to treat the condition should not be a routine, but parenteral antibiotic therapy in the presence of septicaemia is mandatory.
