Pediatrician 's  Response
Enterogermina contains prebiotics and probiotics i.e. helps in replenishing the beneficial bacteria which often get depleted from the normal intestinal flora during treatment of loose motions and hence should be given. It is right to be given to a child of this age. Alternatively you can give plenty of curd or yogurt which also contains such beneficial bacteria.
