Hi
i appreciate your concern
Sometimes diarrhoea can be caused by viral infection which takes time to stop

So you need not to worry
in my opinion you should stop all the medicines and give him proper feeds and ORS
breastfeeding is recommended

maintain a good hygienic conditions around the baby
plenty of fluids and breastfeeding will cure the baby

you can give multivitamin drops for restoration of health

Hope this helps you
good luck
