Reye’s Syndrome af-
fects children from in-
fancy through age 19.
When a child is
recovering from a viral
infection, especially the
flu, chicken pox or an
upper respiratory infect-
ion, and the following
symptoms are observed,
they should be treated as
serious and possibly the
first indication of Reye’s
Syndrome: persistent or
continuous vomiting;
listlessness (loss of pep
and energy, drowsiness) ;
personality change (such
as irritability and com-
bativeness) ; disorient-
ation (unable to identify
whereabouts or family
members) ; delirium and
convulsions.
Reye’s Syndrome af-
fects the liver and the
brain. It is noncontagious
and it is often
misdiagnosed as‘ en-
cephalitis, meningitis,
diabetes, poisoning,
mental illness or even
drug abuse.
A child’s life can depend
on early diagnosis. Phone
your - physician im-
mediately if any of the
symptoms develop and
tell him that you suspect
Reye’s: Syndrome. Anti-
nausea or fever reducing
medication may mask the
symptoms of Reye's
Syndrome and are still
under suspicion; there-
fore, your physician may
wish to avoid them.
Two liver function tests
can be done to indicate the
possibility of Reye's
Syndrome. There is a 90
percent chance of
recovery when it is
treated in its earliest
stages by physicians and
nurses experienced in the
treatment of the disease.
