Sanjiu Weitai granules cannot treat gastroenteritis; this medication only helps alleviate symptoms of chronic gastritis. Gastroenteritis is mostly caused by unhygienic diet and should be treated with anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory medications under the guidance of a qualified physician to relieve symptoms such as diarrhea and vomiting. During treatment, patients should eat easily digestible foods.
