She wants to drink only plain water and little bit of buttermilk till now. Gave her two doses of crocin. But fever is not controlled. For motions I am giving econorm.

Continue water and butter milk

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The only way for the water to stay in the body is by adding a pinch of salt into it every time you give her water. Salt retains the water in the body. Next, it to control the loose stools. Continue Econorm along with it give Zedott powder mixed in water, 2 sachets per day. This will reabsorb the water from the intestines and reduce loose stools and water loss.

Wish you good health.
