Symptoms of meningitis in children include headache, fever, muscle stiffness, nausea, and vomiting. For an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management, it is essential to consult a physician at a hospital. Under medical supervision, medications such as cefuroxime axetil tablets and prednisone hydrochloride tablets may be prescribed for symptom relief. Additionally, supportive treatments—such as oxygen therapy—may be administered to effectively control disease progression and prevent worsening of the condition, thereby safeguarding the child’s health.
