Food poisoning cure is an extremely unpleasant disease. Pathogenic bacteria, after ingestion, cause a variety of disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, fever and diarrhea.
Treatment
Step 1. Gastric lavage

When the first symptoms appear, you need to remove the remains of toxic food from the body. To do this, wash the stomach. The algorithm of actions is the same as when providing first aid.

Prepare a weak solution of potassium permanganate (potassium permanganate) or baking soda (for 1.5-2 liters of water at room temperature, 1 tablespoon of soda).
Drink some solution.
Call for vomiting (with two fingers, press down on the root of the tongue).
Repeat the procedure several times until the vomit becomes clean.
Step 2. Reception of sorbents

Sorbents are drugs that help to remove toxins from the body. The most famous of them is activated carbon.

Activated charcoal reduces absorption of toxins, salts of heavy metals, alkaloids and other harmful substances into the gastrointestinal tract, and also promotes their excretion from the body.

Dosage for poisoning: one tablet for every 10 kg of body weight.
In other words, if you weigh 70 kg, then you will need at least seven tablets. In severe cases, dosage should be increased.

When poisoning coal is better to take in the form of an aqueous suspension. To do this, mash the tablets and mix with 100 ml of boiled water at room temperature. The taste of this mixture is quite nasty, but it effectively fights poisoning.


Also, instead of the usual one, you can use white coal. It is believed that this is an elective, concentrated sorbent. It not only removes toxins, but also preserves nutrients. In this case, the dosage is halved: for an adult, 2-4 tablets, depending on the degree of food poisoning cure.

Instead of coal, you can use other sorbents (as instructed). 

Step 3. Copious Drinking

Vomiting and diarrhea greatly dehydrate the body - you need to fill the fluid loss and maintain the water balance.
