Can I Give More Ranitidine And Imodium For Stomach Pain And Diarrhea?

Hi,

My name is Kristine and I have a 9 years old son that has a really bad stomachache.

I took him to the dotor and doctor prescribed Imodium A-D and Ranitidine. I gave him the medicine around 7:30 pm, which was 4 hours ago. Now, he is saying he has stomach pain due to stomach gases and has symptoms of diarrhea. Should I give me some more Ranitidine & Imodium now? Please advise, thank you!!!
