Suggest Medication For Acute Diarrhea In An Infant
Hello Sir, My daughter is 20 months old and has acute diarrhea from last 8-9 days. My doctor had prescribed her ofloxacin and metrogyl oral suspension but there was no improvement. Now he has prescribed her enterogermina oral suspension( 1X2 times for 3 days) with Zink Acitate. I have already given her 3 bottles of enterogermina but still there is no sign of improvement. Sir Please suggest is it right? and how long it will take to recover her??

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
It seems your kid is having viral diarrhoea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
