A brief review of the actual knowledge on the infantile enteritis caused by infectious agents is given. The antibiotic therapy of bacterial enteritis is still acute, but the range of indications is limited. This kind of therapy aims at the curative effect, but not at the sanitation of the stools, for which no reliable method exists. Any kind of infantile enteritis needs dietetic treatment.
