Hi,
Thank you for your query,
Your child is having dysentery due to a bacteria.
This infection needs antibiotic treatment.
Continue the medication as advised by Pediatrician.
Try to increase giving oral rehydration solutions like Pedialyte, coconut water, lemon water to replace the losses.
Your child is having signs of dehydration and consult your Pediatrician as she may need correction of dehydration with IV fluids.
Hope I have answered your query.
