[Pharmacotherapy of acute infant enteritis].

The management of acute diarrhea in infants with drugs is justified only where these drugs have specific interactions with the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved. Most of the infectious diarrheas are self-limited, many patients recover spontaneously. Antimicrobial drugs are only indicated if mucosal destruction takes place and symptoms of dysentery respectively inflammation are observed. Some authors propose to treat newborn and young infants in case of doubt. If antimicrobial drugs are given uncritically a selection of not obligatory microorganisms can occur, or the number of asymptomatic carriers increases. There is no confirmation that drugs like adsorbents (kaolin, pectin, charcoal) or lyophilized microorganisms have a therapeutic effect. In contrast morphine derivatives like loperamide act not only by slowing the intestinal motility but also by inhibiting the secretion mechanisms of the enterocyts. Nevertheless these drugs can not be recommended for infants since ileus symptoms have been observed.
